Kenya's Senate Energy Committee has directed the Ministry of Energy and Petroleum to establish a digital system for real-time monitoring of fuel stocks within six months to enhance fuel security.

• The system aims to provide real-time data on fuel stocks and imports to government agencies.
• Key stakeholders include the Ministry of Energy and Petroleum, Kenya Pipeline Company (KPC), Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA), and Kenya Bureau of Standards (KEBS).
• This directive follows an inquiry into alleged irregularities during an emergency fuel procurement in March 2026, highlighting supply chain weaknesses.
