The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →
energy_rights_query Energy Rights Query ~140
Explain consumer rights on electricity in Kenya: disconnection notice, billing disputes, damage from surges, connection delays and rural access under the Energy Act 2019. Use when someone asks whether the utility acted correctly or where to complain. Keywords in topic select entries; if none match, ALL rights are returned. Returns the source label, the topic, the rights, EPRA's contact details and a not-legal-advice disclaimer. Static summary labelled DEMO: verify with EPRA. Read-only; no side effects.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| topic | string | yes | Rights topic such as disconnection, billing_dispute, quality, connection_delay or rural_access. |
Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.
No examples provided.
energy_subsidy_programs Energy Subsidy Programs ~130
List Kenyan energy access programmes: last-mile connectivity, REREC rural electrification, KOSAP subsidised solar, the lifeline tariff and Stima Loan. Use when someone asks what support exists to get electricity or solar. Takes an optional county that is only echoed back: the same list is returned for every county. Returns the source label, the county and the programmes with provider and benefit. A static list labelled DEMO: verify eligibility at epra.go.ke and rerec.go.ke. Read-only; no side effects.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| county | – | – | Optional county; only echoed back. |
Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.

kplc_connection_guide Kplc Connection Guide ~159
Step-by-step guide to getting a new electricity connection from Kenya Power (KPLC): application documents, site survey, quotation, payment, installation and meter. Use when someone asks how to get connected or what it costs. The steps are the same for every county and connection type: both arguments are only echoed back. Returns the source label, county, type, the numbered steps, a note on rural electrification subsidies and KPLC contact details. A static summary labelled DEMO with indicative costs: confirm the process and fees at kplc.co.ke. Read-only; no side effects.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| connection_type | – | – | Connection type such as residential; only echoed back (default residential). |
| county | – | – | Optional county; only echoed back. |
Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.
No examples provided.
solar_options_guide Solar Options Guide ~160
Compare solar options in Kenya from a lantern to a productive-use system, with indicative cost ranges, capacity, what each covers and example providers. Use when someone asks what solar they can get for a budget or purpose. With budget_kes, tiers whose lowest listed price is above the budget are removed; use_case is only echoed back. Returns the matching options, a note on pay-as-you-go via M-PESA and the REREC site. Indicative 2025 prices labelled DEMO: confirm with providers. Read-only; no side effects.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| budget_kes | – | – | Optional budget in KES; removes tiers whose lowest listed price is above it. |

solar_yield_estimate Solar Yield Estimate ~258
Estimate how much electricity a fixed solar panel system would produce at a location, using live data from the European Commission's PVGIS service (satellite-based solar radiation). Use when someone is sizing a rooftop or off-grid solar system, comparing places, or checking whether solar can cover a monthly consumption. Returns annual and monthly kWh for the system size, the inputs used, the source with its attribution, and the retrieval time; on a network or service failure it returns an error instead of a number. Read-only; contacts an external service.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| latitude | number | yes | Latitude in decimal degrees, for example -1.29 for Nairobi. Must be between -60 and 65 (PVGIS coverage). |
| longitude | number | yes | Longitude in decimal degrees, for example 36.82 for Nairobi. Must be between -180 and 180. |
| system_kwp | number | – | Installed panel capacity in kilowatt-peak, for example 1.0 for about three 330 W panels. Between 0.01 and 1000. |
| system_losses_pct | number | – | Expected system losses in percent (cables, inverter, dust, temperature). PVGIS suggests 14. Between 0 and 50. |
Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.
No examples provided.
tariff_calculator Tariff Calculator ~188
Estimate a monthly Kenya Power electricity bill in KES from units consumed. Use when someone asks roughly what a given number of kWh will cost. Applies a simple domestic tariff band by units (up to 50, up to 100, above), adds a fuel levy estimate, a forex estimate and a fixed charge. customer_type is accepted but ignored: only the units decide the band. Returns the category, energy charge, fuel levy estimate, fixed charges, estimated total and a reminder to add 16% VAT. Constants are illustrative and not checked against the current KPLC or EPRA tariff: labelled DEMO, confirm at kplc.co.ke. Read-only; no side effects.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| customer_type | – | – | Accepted but ignored; only monthly_units_kwh sets the band (default residential). |
| monthly_units_kwh | number | yes | Electricity used in a month in kilowatt-hours. |
