Diesel price fluctuations
Between Spain, Germany, France, United Kingdom, Italy, Japan, the U.S. and Canada, there is a lack of consistency in the monthly change in the price of automotive diesel. Canada's prices decreased by over 22 percent between June 2020 and June 2019, whereas prices in the United Kingdom only fell by around 16.2 percent. All changes were a direct result of falling oil prices amid the coronavirus pandemic.
Diesel fuel in the United States
The monthly retail price of diesel fuel in the U.S. had seen only slight fluctuations in the months between June 2019 and January 2020. However, when crude oil demand began falling due to the pandemic, so did diesel retail prices. Figures slumped to a low of 2.39 U.S. dollars per gallon in May 2020. Crude oil accounts for, on average, about 40 to 50 percent of the share of the total cost of diesel in the U.S. Texas sold the highest volume of diesel and alternative fuel of any state in 2018. That year, they sold about 5.91 billion gallons of diesel.
