Fuel prices rise across the board in weekend adjustment
Fuel prices were up across the board in the latest adjustment from the Public Utilities Board on Saturday.
The changes to maximum prices reflect recent changes in market commodity prices. The changes to maximum fuel prices are as follows:
- all types of gasoline motor fuel will increase by up to 3.7 cents per litre (“cpl”);
- diesel motor fuel on the Island will increase by up to 8.2 cpl;
- diesel motor fuel in Zones 13 and 13a in Labrador will increase by up to 8.2 cpl;
- furnace oil heating fuel on the Island will increase by 7.12 cpl; and,
- stove oil heating fuel in Zones 13 and 13a in Labrador will increase by 7.12 cpl.
These changes are based on the most recently available market data as of the close of business
on July 23, 2026 and as a result do not reflect more recent market activity.
The Board’s next price adjustment is on Tuesday, July 28, 2026
