From Kenya to Yemen
When travelling from Kenya to Yemen: Good news: all your Kenya plug types fit in Yemen. Voltage is different (240V → 230V). Check your charger label; if it doesn’t list 230V you’ll also need a voltage converter. Frequency is the same at 50Hz.

About electricity in Yemen
Yemen uses 230V/50Hz with Type C, D, and G sockets.
Grid & history
Yemen’s grid has largely collapsed due to ongoing conflict. Most accessible electricity now comes from rooftop solar and small generators; the public grid operates intermittently where it operates at all.
Availability
Effectively absent in many areas. Rooftop solar is the largest single supply source.
Sockets & hotels
A mix of UK Type G, Indian Type D, and European Type C plugs are in use depending on building era.
Energy mix
Decentralised solar dominates due to grid collapse.
Practical tips
- A universal adapter is essential.
- High-capacity power banks and a small solar charger are practical additions.
