    "content": "(iii) Group schemes; these schemes are modelled to standardize fees paid by each customer benefitting from the electrification; this again enhances affordability. The KPLC will invest in supplying the pioneer customers and recover the cost in latter customers as they pay for connections. (iv) Partnership with the donor community and the use of revolving funds; the Kenya Power and donor community have initiated a Stima Loan Scheme which facilitates access to credit by the customers who are unable to raise the standard connection fees, thus creating more demand and extended infrastructure across the country.
