Diesel fuel has risen in price since October 1, subsidies ended

Daily price spikes are bombarding households, and diesel drivers will feel it from today.

“Put your hand deep into your pocket” will have to motorists because from today, 1/10, stop direct subsidizing of diesel fuel at gas stations, as a result, the price will exceed the price of gasoline. In general, it seems that rising energy prices cannot be stopped.

The budget funds, which will no longer be issued for diesel-fueled vehicles, will be spent on home heating allowance. According to available information, the goal of the Ministry of Finance is to allocate about 30 million euros for this.

The new diesel price is expected to surpass the price of unleaded petrol (αμόλυβδης), as it is priced between 1.823 and 1.973 euros per litre. According to the price summary of the Ministry of Development, the price of unleaded petrol on September 29 was 1.958 euros per litre.

It is recalled that the gas station subsidy was 15 cents.
