Source of the National Authority for Market Fuels (ENMC) confirmed to Lusa that prices can also be found on the internet that entity page “in the last week of the month, as planned.”
Currently, consumers can know which stations more economical supply of the country by fuel type in the Directorate-General for Energy and Geology page as well as the average price in over 2600 stations in mainland Portugal .
