EPRA Reduces Fuel Price

The Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA) on Friday, July 14, released new fuel prices taking effect from Saturday, July 15.

In the latest review, a litre of Super Petrol will retail at Ksh194.68 – a drop of Ksh0.85 from the current Ksh195.53 price while a litre of Diesel remained at Ksh179.67.  

Kerosene also recorded a reduction in price by Ksh3.96 and will retail at Ksh169.48 from the current Ksh173.44 per litre.

“Taking into account the weighted average cost of imported refined petroleum products, the changes in the maximum allowed petroleum prices in Nairobi are as follows: Super Petrol & Kerosene decrease by Ksh0.85 and Ksh3.96 per litre respectively while Diesel remains unchanged,” read the statement in part.

The review came 14 days after an increase of Ksh13 was effected on Petrol on June 31 following the 16 Per cent VAT on fuel products included in the Finance Bill.
