Wandayi bestätigt Senkung der Dieselpreise auf Anweisung von Ruto

Energieminister Opiyo Wandayi hat bestätigt, dass die Dieselpreise im Überprüfungszeitraum Juni-Juli wie von Präsident William Ruto angewiesen um 10 Ksh gesenkt werden.

Wandayi erklärte am 5. Juni, dass das Ministerium den Anweisungen des Präsidenten zur Umsetzung der Kürzung folgen werde. Er merkte an, dass die Dieselpreise in Nairobi nach Anwendung der Senkung auf 222,86 Ksh pro Liter fallen werden. Ruto ordnete die Reduzierung am 22. Mai nach einem Treffen mit Vertretern der Transportbranche in Mombasa an. Die Änderung soll im kommenden Preiszyklus in Kraft treten, um die Kosten zu stabilisieren. Wandayi forderte die Transportunternehmen auf, die Tarife im Einklang mit den sinkenden Kraftstoffpreisen zu senken. Er hob zudem die Rolle der Petroleum Development Levy hervor, die Verbraucher angesichts der Spannungen im Nahen Osten vor höheren Weltmarktpreisen schützen soll. Die Preise für Superbenzin und Kerosin sollen am 14. Juni bekannt gegeben werden.

The cuts end surges of over P100 on diesel since late February's Middle East crisis. President Marcos suspended excise taxes on LPG and kerosene, while a jeepney subsidy launches.

Energy and Petroleum Cabinet Secretary Opiyo Wandayi has ordered the Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA) to exclude a 60,000-metric-tonne consignment of super petrol from monthly cost computations, as it was imported outside the government-to-government (G-to-G) framework. He directed a freeze on all related payments and instructed One Petroleum Ltd to withdraw its invoices. The move aims to protect the fuel supply chain and prevent price hikes.

South African petrol prices will rise by R3.06 per litre to R23.25 inland from midnight on 1 April, while diesel reaches a record R26.11 per litre after a R7.51 increase. The hike stems from global oil prices exceeding $100 per barrel amid the Iran war and a weakened rand. A temporary R3 per litre reduction in the fuel levy cushions the impact.

Fuel prices in the Philippines are expected to decline again this week, though on a smaller scale, according to Department of Energy estimates. Diesel could fall by P8 to P10 per liter, gasoline by around P0.40 per liter or rise up to P1 per liter, and kerosene by P11 per liter.
