30, 20 or 10 centimes per litre, what aid at the pump between now and December 31?

The State will lower the cost per liter of fuel by 30 cents until November 15, 2022. This aid will drop to 10 cents between mid-November and the end of December. TotalEnergies should also extend its commercial offer.

The Prime Minister announced Sunday evening a modification of the calendar of the various boosts to the pump of the government by the end of the year. We will extend this discount on fuel until mid-November and I had the CEO of Total this afternoon who will also extend his discount, said Elisabeth Borne on the set of 20 hours of TF1. This decision is the consequence of the current strike which complicates access to service stations for some French people.

Clearly, the rebate of 30 cents of the government which has applied since September 1 will therefore not end on October 31 as initially planned, but around the November 15. From this date, it will increase to 10 cents until December 31, 2022. On the side of TotalEnergies, the additional discount of 20 cents will also be extended before being lowered to 10 cents until the end of the year.

The end of general aid scheduled for December 31, 2022

On the other hand, this general rebate at the pump should not go beyond the end of the year 2022, even if it means adding a boost later on targeted on the model of the exceptional energy check. That the Prime Minister decides to extend it for 15 days because there have been difficulties and that there continue to be difficulties in service stations, everyone can understand that. But everyone will also understand that we cannot permanently retain a measure which is also an incentive to consume fuel including fossil fuels, which is a subsidy to fossil fuels, explained the Minister of the Economy Bruno Le Maire on BFMTV.

Emmanuel Macron also announced this weekend the increase from 6,000 to 7,000 euros in the bonus, subject to income conditions, for the purchase of an electric vehicle.
