Kenya Power reported earning Sh125.9 million from electric vehicle (EV) charging in 2025, attributing the growth to increased EV uptake and supportive government policies. In the transport sector, Kenya's Standard Gauge Railway (SGR) also saw significant growth in 2025, with both passenger traffic and cargo volumes increasing notably despite a fare hike. The railway generated substantial revenue, indicating strong demand. Concurrently, consumers may experience lower retail prices as manufacturing costs continue to fall significantly. The Producer Price Index (PPI) dropped in the final quarter of 2025 to levels not seen in nearly three years, signalling reduced production costs across key economic sectors.
