Fuel prices set to soar again next week: diesel could rise 15 cents and hit historic record

SAPO Notícias4 September 2026 at 08:10

Fuel prices are set to rise again next week in Portugal. According to the anticipation by the National Association of Fuel Retailers (ANAREC), diesel could register a rise of 15 cents per liter.

With this increase, the price of diesel could reach approximately 2.169 euros per liter, which would represent a historic record for this fuel in the country.

As for 95 octane gasoline, prices could reach 2.122 euros per liter, following the same upward trend observed in recent weeks.

ANAREC anticipated this maximum increase, warning about the significant impact these rises will have on Portuguese consumers, in a period already marked by the general rise in the cost of living.

Portugal's (limited) shield against rising interest rates

Portugal managed to reduce its public debt by more than a third over the past six years, which, combined with the fact that only a small portion of the debt is subject to rising interest rates, creates significant protection against higher financing costs. These two factors act as "shields" that mitigate the impact of rising interest rates on the Portuguese economy. According to the analysis, Portugal's central problem is no longer convincing markets of its fiscal discipline; rather, a different underlying issue is what the country now faces.
