This document discusses a benchmarking study of electricity tariffs in Rwanda and the surrounding region. [1] Rwanda has some of the highest electricity tariffs in the region, with ordinary customers paying 132 FRW (22 US cents) per kWh and some industrial customers paying 123.9 FRW (21 US cents) per kWh. [2] Tariffs are lower in other East African countries like Kenya and Uganda, and much lower in Southern African countries. [3] The key findings show that other countries reviewed have more customer categories than Rwanda's two categories, with most utilities having separate residential rates.
