PTEnvironment Minister expects fuel prices to continue falling and calls for study on price formation
The Minister of Environment and Energy, Maria da Graça Carvalho, expressed hope that fuel prices will continue to decrease but emphasized the need for transparency regarding how these prices are formed. She stated that the government wants to understand why price reductions are slower than expected, particularly after international market trends show lower oil prices. The minister requested studies from the National Energy Sector Entity (ENSE) and the Energy Services Regulatory Entity (ERSE), highlighting factors such as transportation costs, inflation, and raw material expenses affecting price changes. This follows recent parliamentary discussions where she noted that fuel prices were not decreasing at the same rate as they had increased. The issue has gained more attention due to geopolitical tensions impacting global oil supply.
