Gas prices are seven cents lower in Western Pennsylvania this week at\u00a0$4.694 per\u00a0gallon, according to AAA East Central\u2019s Gas Price Report<\/p>\n

Nationwide Trends:<\/a>
The national average for a gallon of regular is four cents lower this week at $4.49. Even though this week\u2019s average is cheaper than last week, gas prices are still the highest they\u2019ve been in four years. With gasoline demand on the rise and the prolonged closure of the Strait of Hormuz, pump prices are likely to remain elevated as the summer travel season gets underway. Today\u2019s national average is 40 cents more than a month ago and $1.32 more than a year ago.<\/p>\n

According to\u00a0new data from the Energy Information Administration<\/a>\u00a0(EIA), gasoline demand increased last week from 8.75 million barrels per day to 8.76 million. Total domestic gasoline supply decreased from 215.7 million barrels to 214.2 million. Gasoline production decreased last week, averaging 9.3 million barrels per day.<\/p>\n

At the close of Wednesday\u2019s formal trading session, West Texas Intermediate fell $5.89 to settle at $98.26\u00a0a barrel<\/a>. The EIA\u00a0reports<\/a>\u00a0crude oil inventories decreased by 7.9 million barrels from the previous week. At 445 million barrels, U.S. crude oil inventories are about 2% below the five-year average for this time of year.<\/p>\n

The national average per kilowatt hour of electricity at a public EV charging station remained the same this past week at 41 cents.<\/p>\n
