Kenya Diesel Market
Kenya is a significant East African economy without major domestic oil production, though offshore exploration is ongoing. EPRA's monthly price review balances consumer affordability with cost recovery. Kenya tracks three products: Super Petrol (gasoline), Diesel, and Kerosene (used widely for cooking by low-income households). Fuel taxes include excise duty, road maintenance levy, and VAT.
Kenya's EPRA sets fuel prices monthly in a structured review that considers crude prices, exchange rates, and taxes. Nairobi prices are the national reference. Other cities have small differentials.
