The Energy, Petroleum, and Regulatory Authority (EPRA) has reduced fuel prices by Kes 1, offering motorists, firms, and households a reprieve.
According to the latest review, diesel has been reduced by Kes1, kerosene by Kes 1.2, and Kes 1.3 for a liter of super petrol.
Consequently, starting at midnight, a liter of super petrol will retail for Kes 192.84 in Nairobi. Kerosene will go for Kes 168.76, and diesel has been set at Kes 179.18.
Interestingly, despite a marginal rise in the average landed cost of the imported commodities, the prices of kerosene and petrol have dropped slightly. However, the price of diesel has dropped marginally.
“The average landed cost of imported Super Petrol increased by 3.82% from US$737.69 per cubic metre in March 2024 to US$765.87 per cubic metre in April 2024; Diesel decreased by 0.46% from US$722.51 per cubic metre to US$719.21 per cubic metre while Kerosene increased by 0.50% from US$725.31 per cubic metre to US$728.97 per cubic metre,” EPRA announced.
