Diesel, the most used fuel in Portugal, is expected to drop five cents and petrol six cents, according to a report by ECO.
From this Monday, when you go to fill up, you will have to pay 1,404 euros per litre of simple diesel and 1,599 euros per litre of 95 simple petrol, taking into account the average values charged at the pumps on Mondays, released by the Directorate of Energy and Geology (DGEG).
These prices already take into account the discounts applied by petrol stations and the review of temporary fiscal measures to help mitigate the increase in fuel prices. By the end of this month, “the reduction in the tax burden will be 30 cents per litre of diesel and 31.6 cents per litre of gasoline in May”. That is a reduction of 2.8 cents in the case of diesel and 2.4 cents in gasoline.
