The incident comes just weeks before Kenya’s government hosts the first Africa Climate Summit.
Much of Kenya awoke on Saturday morning to find it is still without electricity after an unexplained power outage on Friday night shut down the country’s main international airport and led to a rare public apology by a government minister.
Kenya gets almost all of its energy from renewable sources, but infrastructure and alleged mismanagement remain an issue in the country of more than 50 million people.Kenya Power announced in a brief statement a “system disturbance leading to loss of bulk power supply” to parts of the country just before 10pm on Friday.
Around 3am, Kenya Power said power had been restored to the international airport in the capital, Nairobi, and other critical areas in the capital region.Tourism is an important part of Kenya’s economy, and stranded travelers quickly posted images on social media of the darkened airport.
