The Kenya Pipeline Company (KPC) has been dealt a financial blow after the energy regulator cut the cost of storing and handling imported fuel by 31 percent amid sustained efforts to keep pump prices low and stem public anger.

Dealers will effective August 1 pay $3.59 (Sh394.54) per cubic metre as a combined handling and storage fee for imported fuel, down from $5.18 (Sh569.28).
