Cooking gas (LPG) — regulated retail price

What is this?

The maximum retail price of cooking gas (lpg) set by the energy regulator.

How to read it

  • Prices stay flat between adjustments, so a flat line means no decision, not stable world prices.
  • Unit: MZN/kg.
  • June 2017 LPG (40.57) is published as such between 61.08 and 50.74; kept as published.

What does the data say?

Cooking gas (LPG) — regulated retail price is 87.82 MZN/kg (Oct 2026), 114.6% higher than in Jan 2010. Over the last year: +2.1%.

Over all 198 observations since Jan 2010, the highest was 102.02 (Jun 2022) and the lowest 40.57 (Jun 2017).

Why does it matter?

  • Households: Cooking and lighting costs for many households.
  • Businesses: Transport, logistics and generator costs.
  • Government: Adjustments balance importer costs, subsidies and social pressure.
  • Investors: Inflation risk.
  • Mobile money: Higher transport costs can squeeze household budgets and raise the nominal value of everyday payments; effects on transactions are not measured here.
