TotalEnergies announced the extension of its fuel price cap measures until Tuesday, April 7, across its 3,300 service stations in metropolitan France. The decision comes amid a sharp rise in diesel prices on international markets, a fuel of which France is a major net importer. Against a backdrop of persistent crude price volatility, illustrated by recent fluctuations in oil prices driven by geopolitical developments, the company chose to maintain its price ceilings for the Easter holiday weekend.
Gasoline at €1.99/L and Diesel at €2.09/L
According to the company's press release, gasoline is capped at €1.99/L and diesel at €2.09/L through April 7 across the entire metropolitan network. TotalEnergies states it applies a policy of immediate pass-through of all movements in international prices, both upward and downward. The company describes these capping measures as temporary consumer protection during a period of elevated wholesale prices.
A supplementary benefit is available to customers who have subscribed to an electricity or gas contract with TotalEnergies. Those enrolled in the "fuel benefit" scheme receive a €1.99/L ceiling regardless of fuel type for the full year 2026. The corresponding discount is itemized on the receipt at the end of each transaction, according to the company. The offer is also available to new residential customers subscribing to an electricity and/or gas contract.
One of France's Largest Fuel Distribution Networks
TotalEnergies, which recently created NEO NEXT+, the UK's largest independent oil and gas producer, operates one of France's leading fuel distribution networks, with 3,300 service stations across metropolitan territory. The company, active in approximately 120 countries, employs more than 100,000 people worldwide according to its own figures. These pricing measures apply to all individual customers at its French stations through Tuesday, April 7.
