Fuel prices in Kenya will remain unchanged for the next month, the Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA) announced following its latest review. Super petrol will continue to retail at Sh 184.52 per litre — supported by a Sh 0.48subsidy — while diesel remains at Sh 171.47 after a Sh 2.33 fuel-stabilisation adjustment. Kerosene is also steady at Sh 154.78, underpinned by Sh 4.24 in price support.
According to EPRA, import costs shifted only marginally over the period. The landed cost of super petrol dipped slightly from US$ 620.24 to US$ 619.14 per cubic metre in October, a 0.18 per cent decrease. Diesel saw a 1.81 per cent rise, climbing from US$ 623.75 to US$ 635.05, while kerosene’s cost inched up 0.71 per cent, from US$ 627.72 to US$ 632.16.
This marks the second month in a row that EPRA has opted to hold pump prices steady through subsidy mechanisms, cushioning Kenyan consumers from global price fluctuations. Fuel costs remain a major driver of the national economy — influencing transport, agriculture, manufacturing and consumer prices — making any upward adjustment a potential ripple effect across sectors.
