For the second consecutive week, the price of LP Gas (liquefied petroleum) will give a slight respite to the pocket of Mexicans. The Energy Regulatory Commission (CRE) updated this Saturday the tabulator of maximum prices that will have to be handled by distributors throughout the country from the first minute of this Sunday, March 27 and until next Saturday, April 2.
Rates vary depending on the municipality of each region and, according to the Federal Government, the objective of the regulation is to control prices and “prevent corporate abuses” in the face of inflation.
The national average price of energy decreased, as the kilogram stood at 25.46 pesos, while per liter is 13.75 pesos.
It should be remembered that it was in July 2021 that the national average cost reached its highest level of the year and caused this “regulation”, registering at 25.90 pesos per kilogram, which means that the current cost is only 0.44 cents lower than it was then.
And the fact is that the invasion of the Russian army in Ukraine triggered the prices of all fuels around the world; however, in the last two weeks it has relaxed compared to the end of February.
