The price of diesel has fallen by Sh5 per litre in the latest monthly review by the Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA).
That means a litre of diesel will now retail at Sh217.86 in Nairobi from midnight while prices of super petrol and Kerosene will stay flat at Sh214.03 and Sh191.38 respectively for the next month.
EPRA said it used Sh938 million from the government’s fuel stabilisation fund to lower the price of diesel while keeping the prices of petrol and kerosene unchanged.
This is despite an increase in the landed cost of imported super petrol, which went up by 6.99 per cent from $836.92 per cubic metre in June to $948.92 in July 2026.
However, the landed cost of diesel decreased by 13.08 percent to $855.59 per cubic metre from $984.37 in the same period.
Kerosene’s landed cost also declined by 11.01 percent from $1,028.17 to $915.01 per cubic metre.
EPRA said the government’s stabilisation programme supported the changes in fuel prices.
