From September 1, gasoline will go to €1.50/L in France. A substantial drop which will no doubt delight our French neighbours. This reduced price is possible thanks to a reduction in excise duties decided by the French State as well as a reduction granted by TotalEnergies in its service stations. It is a reduction of 30 cents which will finally be applied by the State. For its part, TotalEnergies has announced that it will reduce its price per liter by 20 cents at its service stations.
