Kenya's LPG consumption declined in 2023 due to rising costs, leading to increased reliance on firewood, charcoal, and kerosene.

Kenya's LPG consumption declined to 6.8 kg per capita in 2023 due to rising costs, resulting in more low-income households relying on firewood, charcoal, and kerosene for cooking. The country is entirely dependent on imported LPG, and its retail price has increased due to the weaker shilling in 2023. The government promotes LPG as a clean fuel, reducing pollution compared to biomass-burning stoves.
