  • Petrol prices have risen nearly 50%, while diesel prices increased 72%, since the domestic surge began.

  • After the latest monthly adjustment, petrol reached a record R30.95 per litre in Gauteng.

  • Ramaphosa warned that major subsidies or levy cuts could remove substantial revenue from other government programmes and public services.

  • Ramaphosa cited previous subsidies of about R24 billion; a clear decision is expected on Wednesday.
  • You must remember that when the fuel price rose a few months ago, the government intervened and poured into a subsidy system about R24bn. Now that is R24bn that we are removing from other programmes.

  • Transport Minister Steffen Bilger is advocating higher biofuel blending with France and cites E20 as one possible option.

  • If E10 costs €2.25 per litre, E20 would need to be about 6.6 cents cheaper with 7.4-litre consumption and three-percent higher usage.

  • In December, the European Commission proposed allowing further combustion-engine registrations; Parliament and member states are discussing it, with approval still pending.
  • The ban on combustion engines will then be history.
