Recent Fluctuations at the Pump
Drivers in Greece saw a slight decrease in gasoline prices this week. The drop followed the implementation of a state subsidy alongside the delayed effect of lower international oil prices from the previous week.
However, this downward trend is expected to be short-lived. The International Energy Agency warns that market stabilization will take time, and new price increases are anticipated starting next week.
Heating Oil Demand and New Regulations
Meanwhile, market demand for heating oil remains subdued compared to the figures recorded during the same period last year.
Petrol station operators are also turning their attention toward the upcoming launch of the mydiesel application. Set to go live on November 1, the new system will allow farmers to obtain fuel exempt from the special consumption tax.
