The price of liquefied petroleum gas rose to nearly 17 lei a liter, IPN reports.
Unlike the price ceilings for gasoline and diesel fuel, the National Agency for Energy Regulation does not set the highest retail prices for liquefied petroleum gas. Last summer, the price of liquefied petroleum gas grew by over 1 leu to almost 13 lei a liter in September. Since autumn until the beginning of this March, the price increased to nearly 15 lei and by 2 lei more the past two weeks.
The National Agency for Energy Regulation sets price ceilings only for gasoline “95” and diesel fuel. For March 24, the ceilings are 27.02 lei and 26.16 lei, respectively.
For comparison, at the start of September, a liter of gasoline “95” cost 20.23 lei, while a liter of diesel fuel –16.42 lei.
