Prices for gasoline and diesel in the Netherlands, Denmark and Germany are higher than in any other European country, Germany’s Federal Statistical Office (Destatis) has said.
In early March, prices for standard E10 fuel and diesel at petrol stations in Germany climbed above the 2-euro ($2.18) per litre mark. The country’s Federal Cartel Office (BKartA) on Monday said it would closely monitor prices in response to this development.
Fuel prices were even higher in the Netherlands and Denmark, at 2.11 euros and 2.09 euros respectively. However, Germany had the highest prices for diesel of any European country as of April 4, according to Destatis.
