Fuel prices have taken a jump upwards, but there are ways to find the best value.<\/p>\n

The price of home heating oil, petrol and diesel<\/a> has increased following American and Israeli<\/a> attacks on Iran. Such action has an impact on the global economy.<\/p>\n

The cost of a litre of motor fuel has already crossed the \u20ac2 at many forecourts. In February, the AA reports <\/a>that the average cost of Diesel was \u20ac1.72 per litre, an increase from \u20ac1.69 in January, while petrol was an average of \u20ac1.73 per litre, up from \u20ac1.70 in January.<\/p>\n

There are various platforms to check the prices and price increases of fuel across the country. Some are updated more regularly than others.<\/p>\n

The stats website oilprices.ie<\/a> has a graph displaying the costs of home heating oil.<\/p>\n

It shows that the cost of 500 litres of oil was around \u20ac500 on March 1 2026, as of today, March 10, the national average price is \u20ac891.12. The website allows you to filter prices county to county.<\/p>\n

In Dublin<\/a>, the price of 500 litres of oil peaked on March 9 2026 at \u20ac905.76. The website is free to use and access.<\/p>\n

Cheapestoil.ie<\/a> has also been comparing heating oil prices and offering advice and price trends for over 15 years. Their site requires registration to access all services, but is also completely free.<\/p>\n

When it comes to petrol and diesel, the price of a litre of petrol has reached over \u20ac1.90 at most services stations while the cost of diesel has reached \u20ac2.08. One former forecourt owner said<\/a> that distributors are changing their prices \u201ctwice a day\u201d at the moment.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith price differences of several cents per litre still common, shopping around can make a real difference over the course of a month,\u201d an AA spokesperson said.<\/p>\n

\u201cPlanning journeys, refuelling in advance rather than at motorway locations, and using fuel price comparison tools can all help motorists manage costs.\u201d<\/p>\n

Petrol price comparison tools include fuelcompare.ie and pumps.ie, though stations on these tools are not always up to date.<\/p>\n

For drivers in Northern Ireland, there is a Fuel Price Checker Consumer Council tool.<\/a><\/p>\n
