Ireland: energy inflation rate by commodity 2024

The inflation rates of energy commodity prices in Ireland increased significantly in 2022. Liquid fuels saw the steepest rise, with the inflation rate standing at 126.6 percent in March 2022. Gas also saw an increase during late 2022, with inflation reaching its peak in October 2022 at 93.4 percent. These increases in inflation were driven by Russia's invasion of Ukraine, which has caused uncertainty over Europe's security of gas supply, as well as intense energy price volatility. By the middle of 2024, however, the energy commodity prices had decreased compared to the previous year.
