    Method as on the press page: record = highest or lowest national average price with all taxes in the bulletin; in the event of a tie, the first week counts. The record can fall in a different week in each currency because of the exchange rate.

    Methodology
    • Weekly series: national average pump price with all taxes, reported by Germany to the European Commission for each Monday and published in the EU Weekly Oil Bulletin. 1,090 weeks, 3 Jan 2005 – 26 Oct 2026; 49 weeks with no publication (mostly public holidays) are missing and are not filled in.
    • Fuel types: According to the European Commission’s methodology note for Germany (original, 2018 version), Germany reports petrol with up to 5% ethanol (E5) for “Euro-super” (95 octane, here “Super E5”) and a fuel with up to 7% biodiesel (B7) for diesel; the actual biofuel content can range from 0 to 5% for petrol and from 0 to 7% for diesel. Super E10 is not mentioned there. The data source is the Fuel Market Transparency Unit (Markttransparenzstelle) at the Bundeskartellamt (market coverage over 70%); the arithmetic mean is calculated from the reported prices. The reference day is Monday.
    • Pence, pounds and euros: the bulletin publishes prices in euros; in pence, each price = the euro price × the European Central Bank reference rate for the Monday of that bulletin week × 100. Prices per litre are shown as on UK pumps (pence, one decimal); totals such as a full tank are shown in pounds. The pence series therefore also reflects the pound’s exchange rate against the euro.
    • EU weighted average (EU-27): calculated by the European Commission and weighted by each country’s fuel consumption. LPG (autogas) comes from the same source (the bulletin’s “Prices with taxes” table).
    • Records: see the “Records” section; the first week in which the value was reached is counted.
    • Events: start date as given by the linked source; the coloured area shows the period in which the event shaped the market (this page’s timeline).
