EPRA Announces Fuel Prices For September-October Cycle
The Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA) has retained the maximum retail prices of Super Petrol, Diesel and Kerosene for the September-October cycle.
In their monthly update, the regulator announced that a litre of Super Petrol will continue retailing at Ksh214.03, while Diesel remains at Ksh217.86 and Kerosene at Ksh191.38 in a cycle that will run until October 14.
“In accordance with Section 101(y) of the Petroleum Act 2019 and Legal Notice No.192 of 2022, we have calculated the maximum retail prices of petroleum products which will be in force from September 15 to October 14 2026,” EPRA said in a statement.
“In the period under review, the maximum retail prices for Super Petrol, Diesel and Kerosene remain unchanged.”
In Mombasa, motorists will pay Ksh210.87 per litre for petrol, Ksh214.58 for diesel, and Ksh188.09 for kerosene during the period.
In Nakuru, Super Petrol will remain at KSh212.92 per litre, diesel at KSh217.27 and kerosene at KSh190.81 under EPRA’s latest monthly review.
Across other parts of the country, fuel prices will remain unchanged, with petrol retailing at Ksh213.69 per litre in Eldoret and Kisumu, Ksh218.67 in Meru, Ksh213.94 in Kitale and Ksh214.77 in Kisii.
Kilifi will record one of the lowest prices at Ksh211.68 per litre, while Mandera will continue to have the highest petrol price at Ksh234.68.

EPRA noted that the prices are inclusive of Value Added Tax (VAT), in line with the VAT Act, 2013, the Finance Act, 2023, the Tax Laws (Amendment) Act, 2024, and other applicable tax regulations.
Prices still differ slightly from town to town, since transport costs from the coast to inland depots are factored into each region’s final pump price.
Also, the landed cost of petrol fell to about Ksh113.39 per litre, easing import pressure even as retail prices remained unchanged.
Diesel’s landed cost rose to approximately Ksh124.17 per litre, while Kerosene reached Ksh130.22, increasing import costs, but these movements did not translate into higher pump prices.
On the international market, benchmark prices stood at approximately Ksh144,672 per metric tonne for petrol, Ksh143,197 for diesel and Ksh146,743 for Kerosene by August, since Kenya imports all its fuel refined.
