Kenya's Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA) plans to cap cooking gas prices starting October 2025 to shield consumers from market volatility. This initiative involves implementing maximum retail prices and centralizing large-scale gas imports.

• EPRA Director Daniel Kiptoo announced a new system for gas imports to stabilize prices by October 2025.
• The plan includes an Open Tender System (OTS) for large-scale imports, aiming to reduce costs through centralized buying and shared facilities.
• EPRA will also remove permits from dealers operating illegal cooking gas businesses to enhance industry safety.
