Sector: Power Transmission • Location: Nairobi, Kenya
Source: Citizen Digital
Kenya Power has partnered with Amotech Africa and Megger to install Megger's MGA Sensors for real-time monitoring of overhead power lines. The sensors transmit data via cellular networks to a central platform to enable faster fault detection, predictive maintenance, and improved load management, aiming to reduce outages and improve grid reliability metrics such as SAIDI and SAIFI.
