ACTOM Kenya showcases full-spectrum energy solutions at Power & Energy Africa 2025

From 26 to 28 June 2025, ACTOM Kenya showcased its unwavering commitment to innovation and reliability at Power & Energy Africa Kenya 2025. As a trusted leader in East Africa’s energy sector, ACTOM Kenya is proud to have established a firm footprint in Kenya, with ambitions to expand across the region, bringing advanced solutions, strong technical expertise, and reliable service to new markets.

“While we’ve established ourselves in Kenya, we’re also setting our sights on expanding into the rest of East Africa. Our vision is to be a strategic partner for the entire region’s energy evolution,” says Kelvin Ageng’o Oriwo, General Manager of ACTOM Kenya.

Tackling Kenya’s energy challenges with proven solutions


Kenya’s power sector is under immense pressure from rising electricity demand, ageing infrastructure, grid instability, and the increasing complexity of integrating renewable energy sources. These challenges demand adaptable, future-fit technologies and deep technical insight.

“The rapid growth in Kenya’s energy demand, coupled with infrastructure constraints and increasing renewable integration, presents both challenges and opportunities,” notes Oriwo. “ACTOM Kenya is uniquely positioned to support this evolving landscape by providing solutions that address these complexities head-on; to strengthen the grid, improve reliability, and enable smarter energy management.”

A one-stop energy solutions partner


At the expo, ACTOM Kenya presented a comprehensive portfolio of electrical technologies that cover the full energy value chain – from medium and low voltage equipment, to protection, control, power conversion, distribution, battery backup, and smart monitoring solutions.

“Whether you’re a utility, infrastructure developer, or industrial operation, we offer a one-stop shop for energy solutions,” says Oriwo. “We bring together product depth, engineering expertise, and service capability – all under one roof.”

But ACTOM’s offering goes beyond product delivery. What truly sets the company apart is its solution-oriented approach. “Clients don’t come to us looking for just a product,” he explains. “They come with a problem. We analyse, we engineer, and we build a tailored solution – often using our own products – but always starting with the need. That’s the difference.”

Local capability meets global standards
ACTOM Kenya’s strength lies in its ability to combine international engineering benchmarks with deep local insight. With highly skilled technical teams based in Kenya, ACTOM offers in-country support, faster response times, and solutions tailored to local operating conditions.

“Our technical team in Kenya is highly capable,” notes Oriwo. “We have the engineering capacity, the manpower, and the market understanding to deliver real results, efficiently and reliably.”

Enhancing energy security and grid intelligence
Among the solutions on display were battery systems and chargers that provide reliable backup power in critical environments, ensuring energy security even during supply disruptions. In addition, ACTOM is showcasing smart control and monitoring technologies that enable real-time energy visibility and effective substation and asset management, which is critical in a region moving towards decentralised and renewable power generation.

“Energy security and smart grid integration are essential to Kenya’s energy future,” says Oriwo. “Our technologies enable flexibility, resilience, and control so that clients can manage grid fluctuations and the unpredictability of renewable sources.”

A long-term commitment to East Africa’s energy future
ACTOM Kenya serves a diverse client base, from national utilities to private developers and industrial plants. The company’s local presence and growing regional reach reinforce its position as a long-term partner in East Africa’s energy transformation.

“Our participation in Power & Energy Africa Kenya 2025 reaffirms our long-term commitment to sustainable energy development in the region,” Oriwo concludes. “We’re here to deliver more than just products – we’re here to deliver real, measurable energy solutions that support growth.”
