In particular, Greece ranks 16th in the price of heating oil, although the data included in the commission’s current weekly fuel report is from last Monday, 2 January, so it does not reflect the impact of the change in government subsidy (from 0.25 euro cents to liter to 0.15 euros per liter), as well as the abolition of discounts.

As noted in the relevant report of the commission, in many European countries excises, VAT or other indirect taxes have increased since the beginning of the year. For example, Luxembourg, Poland and Sweden increased VAT and excises. Italy and Portugal raised excises. Austria and Latvia increased other indirect taxes.

The countries with the most expensive gasoline are Denmark with a price of 1938 euros per liter and Finland with 1910 euros per liter.

The cheapest countries are Bulgaria (1233 euros), Slovenia (1266 euros) and Romania (1287 euros).
