Fuel shortage: where to fill up? The list of stations near you

PETROL SHORTAGE CARD. How do you know if your petrol station is properly supplied throughout the year? Find the list of stations near you with fuel availability.

Huge queues in front of gas stations and empty gas pumps, this is one of the images of the year 2022. The outbreak of war in Ukraine had a definite impact on fuel prices and led the government to set up a one-off aid, a fuel discount of 30 cents, supplemented by another discount in the stations of the TotalEnergies group.

The end of this aid on November 15 had a new effect on the influx into service stations with motorists wishing to take advantage of the latest “promotions” on gasoline. If the situation has stabilized in December 2022, it is possible to consult the gas supply of stations near you every day. The government identifies, via the services of the Ministry of Transition and the Ministry of the Economy, the maximum amount of data available in petrol stations. However, national figures, like station-by-station data, should be taken with caution, as they depend on the goodwill of service station operators.

We have set up a search engine to find the list of fuels available in the stations of a department and/or a city. Only the places where the station managers have indicated the gasoline available and its price are displayed. The information is classified by date and time of update (“MAJ”), to maximize your chances of finding fuel :

This search engine is based on the “instant flow” of fuel prices in France, provided by the Ministry of the Economy and available on the official website: https://www.fuel-prices.gouv.fr/. It is up to the point of sale concerned to declare its available fuels and its prices, as well as the dates and times of updates to the ministry.

The Ministry of the Economy also provides a map and a search engine. To facilitate your search, first fill in your region, your department or directly your municipality to display the stations near you.

This search engine and this map are made from the “instant flow” of fuel prices in France, provided by the Ministry of the Economy and available on the official website: https://www.fuel-prices.gouv.fr/. This operation generates some limits, the first being that of the absence of recent updates in many stations. Some prices or availability have not been entered for several days. Here is the manual anyway:

• By zooming in and then clicking on a point on the map, you can display all the information about the station and scroll through the prices of each fuel with arrows.
• Out-of-stock fuels are either explicitly mentioned on the map, or absent from the stations
• It is up to the point of sale concerned to declare its station and its prices to the Ministry. Some groups, such as Total, also provide data that is sometimes more detailed.
