Fuel in the Czech Republic is getting more expensive: what are the prices for gasoline, diesel and autogas

Because of the Russian invasion, Ukraine had to reorient itself to the Western market and buy fuel there.

The editors of “Segodnya” monitored prices at Ukrainian gas stations and compared them with offers at gas stations in the Czech Republic. Next, we propose to find out what came of it.

Fuel prices in Ukraine

A-95, A-95+ and A-92 gasoline prevails at Ukrainian gas stations. It is more difficult to find diesel fuel and autogas.

Usual A-95 are sold on average 33.3 UAH/land premium A-95+ now stands by 33.56 UAH/l. For these types of fuel, a significant reduction in price is noticeable – from 40 kopecks. up to UAH 1.64

Behind A-92 the average price is 37.13 UAH/l. In the past few days, this type of gasoline has risen in price by UAH 3.87.

Less and less information about cash diesel and LPG at the gas station. According to the latest data, on average, per liter of DP was asked 37.15 UAH, and for premium diesel 39.3 UAH. Autogas was sold at 26.59 UAH/l. For these types of fuel, a significant increase in prices is noticeable in early April.

Fuel prices in the Czech Republic

At Czech gas stations, almost all fuel prices have risen sharply, except for A-98. Yes, per liter A-95 ask 44.51 crowns (58.13 UAH), although in early April the price was at the level of 44.07 kroons (57.55 UAH).

Drivers can purchase A-98 by price 47.96 CZK/l (UAH 62.63). This type of gasoline fell in price by 0.1 crowns (13 kopecks).

Usual diesel sell by 47.36 CZK/l (UAH 61.85), and premium – behind 47.66 CZK/l (62.24). Since the beginning of April, the cost of diesel fuel has increased by 0.75 crowns (0.98 UAH), and elite fuel – by 0.61 crowns (0.8 UAH).

The state of the fuel market

The site “Segodnya” asked the deputy director of the Scientific and Technical Center “Psyche” Gennady Ryabtsev about the situation on the Ukrainian fuel market. He noted that it is difficult, but controllable.

The expert stressed that shortage of autogas and A-92 there will be no gas stations in Ukraine – cheaper fuel can be ordered in Europe at affordable prices, as well as A-95 or A-95+.

He called on the government strengthen government regulation in the field of fuel, in order to avoid unreasonable price increases for gasoline, diesel and autogas. Gennady Ryabtsev stressed that the Defense Forces and farmers use the A-92 and autogas. Now it is necessary to provide gas stations with these types of fuel, given the war and the beginning of the sowing season.

At the same time, Sergey Kuyun, director of the A-95 Consulting Group, noted that traders need to increase imports through the western border and abandon the state regulation of prices for filling stations. He said that in Ukraine there is a controlled deficit, which in April may increase due to the sowing season and the destruction of oil depots by the occupiers.

“Free pricing will make it possible to remove at least commercial risk from suppliers. Alternatively, it is possible to fix the current regulated markup of 4.5 and 5 UAH/l of gasoline and diesel fuel, respectively, but not to the regulated cost, as it is now, but to the actual one, which is easy to establish according to documents”Kuyun suggested.

Previously, we compared prices at gas stations in Ukraine and Poland. The Ministry of Energy is looking for opportunities to diversify the areas of fuel supply.
