Over the next 14-day period, retail petrol prices will be lower, while diesel and fuel oil prices remain unchanged.

In the evening, the Ministry of Environment, Climate and Energy announced new fuel prices for the next 14-day period. They announced a drop in gasoline prices by 1.1 cents to 1.475 euros per liter. The price of diesel remains unchanged at 1.519 euros per liter. The price of heating oil also remains unchanged, for a liter of which EUR 1.125 must be deducted at the moment.

“Due to the increased traffic, the Government of the Republic of Slovenia has already been conducting a policy of excise duties and contributions for the entire tourist season, which primarily enables stable, constant and predictable prices of petroleum products,” the ministry explained, among other things. They added that gasoline and diesel prices in Slovenia are lower than in most neighboring countries. “A comparison of the prices of gasoline and diesel shows that gasoline and diesel in Slovenia are below the average of neighboring countries, namely, on average, the price of gasoline is lower by 7 percent, and the price of diesel by 0.5 percent.”
