Fuel prices in Portugal rose again and reached a new all-time high. This Monday, the value of a liter of diesel exceeded 2.15 euros, establishing the highest value ever recorded. The increase observed was higher than what sector analysts had predicted. This upward trend has been occurring continuously in recent months, with no signs of reversal. The body responsible for recording these data is the Directorate-General for Energy and Geology, which collects and publishes statistics on fuel prices in Portugal since records began. Diesel thus reaches its maximum value since this data collection began by that entity.
