EPRA: Kenya’s Energy Regulator — News, Prices and Policy Updates

Did you know a single EPRA bulletin can change your fuel bill or monthly electricity charge? If you drive, run a business, or manage a household budget in Kenya, EPRA decisions hit you fast. This tag page collects every report, analysis and update about the Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority so you don’t miss the moves that affect prices and supply.

EPRA sets fuel price formulas, approves electricity tariffs, issues licences to new power plants and enforces safety standards. That sounds technical, but the outcomes are simple: more or less cash out of your pocket, more reliable or shaky power, and new investments or stalled projects. We explain what EPRA does in plain language and link to the latest stories that matter.

What we cover under the EPRA tag

Fuel price bulletins and breakdowns — we show how the monthly pump prices are calculated and what’s driving hikes or drops. You’ll see clear explanations of taxes, exchange rates and global oil trends that explain the numbers on your receipt.

Electricity tariffs and billing changes — when EPRA approves new tariffs or introduces billing rules, we summarise the impact for domestic and business users. Expect guidance on how to read your bill and where to complain if something looks off.

Licensing and new projects — from solar farms to gas plants, EPRA’s approvals shape who builds what. We track approvals, cancellations and controversies so you know which projects will actually add power to the grid.

Consumer protection and enforcement — EPRA issues recalls, safety notices and penalties. We highlight actions that protect consumers and explain how to report outages, poor service or unsafe installations.
