2022 FUEL REBATE. The amount of the fuel rebate has dropped, as expected, since November 16. How much will you pay until the end of the year? We tell you everything.
[Mis à jour le 17 novembre 2022 à 08h16] As planned by the government, the discount fuel from 30 cents down to will reach 10 euro cents from November 16 to December 31, 2022. The discount offered by Totalit goes from 20 centimes to 10 euro cents on the same schedule. These two aids will end on the January 1, 2023. This rebate concerns fishing diesel, non-road diesel (GNR), gasoline (SP95, SP98-E5, SP-95-E10), liquefied petroleum gas fuel (LPG-c), vehicle natural gas (CNG) under compressed (CNG) or liquefied (LNG) form, superethanol (E85) and diesel ethanol (ED95). Direct consequence: fuel prices will start to rise again. In a Total service station, the price per liter should now reach approximately €1.80 (with the two discounts), €1.90 in a station of another firm.
For early 2023, once the fuel rebate is over, the government plans to distribute more targeted aid for the French who “can no longer make ends meet” as indicated by the Minister of Public Accounts Gabriel Attal. The consecrated envelope should approximate 1.5 billion euros, and concern both heavy riders and French people who use their vehicle daily but on short journeys. This new aid should be allocated under income conditions, but the maximum reference tax income per household has not yet been communicated by the executive. To benefit from the aid, all the procedures will be carried out on the site of the General Directorate of Public Finances (DGFiP) by mentioning his personal information (gray card number, name of his company, kilometers).
The fuel discount benefits from a “decreasing” calendar until it is completely extinguished at the end of December 2022. Here are the dates to remember:
- Fitness 30 euro cents from September 1 to November 15, 2022
- Fitness 10 euro cents from November 16 to December 31, 2022
- Deleted from January 1, 2023
In a press release published on July 22, 2022, the Total group indicated a drop in fuel prices at its service stations. “From September 1 to November 1, TotalEnergies will lower the price of petroleum fuels sold in stations by twenty euro cents per liter (…) then by ten euro cents per liter from November 1 to December 31”, explains the group in this press release.
This discount of 20 euro cents will finally be extended until November 15. It will drop to 10 cents from November 16 to December 31, before completely extinguishing on January 1, 2023.
No change in sight at the pump for motorists! The discount of 30 cents per liter of fuel applies exactly the same way as that of 18 cents in force since April 1, 2022. It is applied automatically at the time of payment, at the cash desk or by credit card at the pump. Contrary to what has been announced, the price displayed at the pump is ultimately the one you will ultimately pay. There is therefore no calculation to be made or discount to be requested from the pump, making the operation more legible and simple for the consumer. All fuels are concerned, unleaded 95, 95 E10, 98, diesel such as E85, liquefied natural gas or LPG. Here is the device summarized in three points:
- The measure took effect on Friday, April 1, 2022 and is valid until the end of summer.
- The National Assembly voted on July 27, 2022 to extend the system, the discount increasing to 30 cents in September and October before being lowered to 10 cents for the last two months of 2022.
- This discount measure of 18 cents/litre of fuel increases to 30 cents in September and is valid on all fuels, even E85 at the already lower price. If you drive on diesel with your diesel vehicle, you are therefore just as concerned as if you drive on unleaded petrol.
- The discount is immediate for the motorist. The price after discount is displayed directly at the pump and via the totem panels at the entrance.
No need to be a big wheeler or to justify business trips. Anyone can benefit from this feature, whether you have a store loyalty card or not. This measure concerns both households and businesses and is valid for all fuels, diesel, unleaded petrol such as E85. The discount is displayed directly on the totems present in service stations.
Are all fuels concerned? The fuel discount does not apply to heating oil, as indicated on the website of the Ministry of the Economy. This discount of 30 cents from this Thursday, September 1, 2022 concerns diesel, gasoline (SP95, SP98-E5, SP-95-E10), super ethanol (E85), diesel ethanol (ED95), diesel fishing, non-road diesel (GNR), liquefied petroleum gas fuel (LPG-c), natural gas for vehicles (NGV) in compressed (CNG) or liquefied (LNG) form. Attention, the discount of 30 cents only applies to metropolitan France. Corsica and overseas territories will not be affected. In question, lower taxes on the price of fuel.
