Breaking: EPRA Announces New Fuel Prices for August–September 2025

The Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA) has officially released the new fuel prices that will apply across the country from August 15 to September 14, 2025.

In its monthly price review issued on Thursday, August 14, EPRA confirmed that the prices of super petrol and kerosene have each dropped by Ksh1 per litre, while the price of diesel has remained the same.

The authority clarified that the changes were made in line with Section 101(y) of the Petroleum Act 2019 and Legal Notice No. 192 of 2022. According to EPRA, these new prices will stay in force for the next 30 days, until September 14, 2025.

In Nairobi, the fuel prices for the period are as follows:

  • Super petrol: Ksh185.31 per litre (down from Ksh186.31)
  • Diesel: Ksh171.58 per litre (no change)
  • Kerosene: Ksh155.58 per litre (down from Ksh156.58)

The slight decrease comes after a previous month where motorists had faced higher prices, with petrol sold at Ksh186.31 per litre and kerosene at Ksh156.58 per litre. Diesel, however, remains unchanged.

EPRA also reminded the public that the current pump prices still include a 16% VAT, in line with the Finance Act 2023, the Tax Laws (Amendment) Act 2024, and updated excise duty rates adjusted for inflation as per Legal Notice No. 194 of 2020.

Global Fuel Cost Trends

According to the regulator, the landed cost of imported super petrol — which reflects the international purchase price — went down by 0.73%, moving from $628.30 per cubic metre in June 2025 to $623.71 in July 2025.

On the other hand, the average landed cost for diesel and kerosene slightly went up by 3.08% and 3.20% respectively during the same period.

A report from the Central Bank of Kenya (CBK) had already highlighted this global trend. Their weekly bulletin revealed that the price of Murban crude oil dropped significantly to around USD 68.25 (Ksh8,871) per barrel on August 7 — down from USD 73.52 (Ksh9,550) recorded on July 31.

This significant decline in global oil prices has largely been linked to shifting market expectations, including a predicted rise in global supply, which has driven down international crude oil prices.

Kenya’s Dependence on Imported Fuel

Kenya currently imports all its petroleum products in fully refined form from international markets. As a result, local fuel prices are directly influenced by global price movements and benchmarks used in the international oil trade.


These latest changes may offer slight relief for Kenyan households, businesses, and motorists who have been struggling with high fuel costs in recent months.

However, with diesel prices unchanged and only a small drop in petrol and kerosene costs, many Kenyans will still be closely watching EPRA’s next review with hope for a more substantial reduction.
