High-octane petrol prices are set to decrease, while liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and propane prices are expected to rise, impacting consumers differently this weekend. Starting Saturday, October 31, the price of SuperPlus 98 petrol (E5) will fall by 3.7 cents, bringing it to €1.899 per litre. This reduction offers a slight relief to motorists using high-octane fuel.
Conversely, those relying on LPG and propane for their energy needs will face higher costs. LPG prices will increase by 2.9 cents, reaching €0.972 per litre, and residential propane prices will rise to €0.953 per litre. These changes are part of a broader adjustment in fuel prices set to take effect from midnight on Friday, October 30.
The latest pricing for other fuel types includes EuroSuper 95 (E10) at €1.759 per litre, Diesel (B7) at €2.11 per litre, and heating fuel at €1.601 per litre. Bottled propane and butane are priced at €2.459 and €2.262 per kilogram, respectively.
These adjustments reflect ongoing fluctuations in the energy market, affecting both the transportation sector and household energy consumption. Motorists will benefit from a minor reduction in high-octane petrol costs, while households using LPG and propane should plan for increased expenses.
