Fuel prices are continuing to rise, with agricultural (green) diesel climbing to over 70c/l in some parts of the country.
This is an increase of 3c/l to 5c/l in recent weeks, with higher prices being charged in cases for sales at filling stations. Prices for white diesel also remain on an upward curve, with an average price of €1.25/l being quoted.
A wide differential exists between and even within regions.
Green diesel is ranging from 71c/l right down to 63c/l, which was quoted in Monaghan.
Fuel companies say there can be better value achieved. However, with a variation of 1c/l to 2c /l depending on the quantity purchased and the method and timing of payment.
Car diesel ranges price from €1.22/l to €1.25/l in most places, although prices as low as €1.20/l and as high as €1.27 have also been reported.
The future outlook given by many fuel suppliers suggests that there will be no short-term decline in prices, with the bigger oil suppliers “having the ball at their foot”.
As well as this, events such as the election of Donald Trump as president of the US and continuing unrest in Syria and Libya are contributing to more uncertainty and causing fluctuation and upward movement in global prices.
