New Hike on Orange Gas Bottle Prices Results in 20% Increase in the Last Year
The cost of an orange butano gas canister went up by five percent this week, which means that prices have gone up by 20 percent in just under a year. Government-set prices only apply to orange gas bottles, although a few euros’ extra is charged when these are on a contract and delivered door-to-door.
The cost of an orange butano gas canister went up by five percent this week, which means that prices have gone up by 20 percent in just under a year. Government-set prices only apply to orange gas bottles, although a few euros’ extra is charged when these are on a contract and delivered door-to-door.
The lighter, silver bottles bought from distributors directly or from petrol stations are not subject to State-regulated prices, and retailers are permitted to charge what they wish.
A typical orange bottle used by householders for heating and cooking has gone up to €13.52 from the previous price of €12.89 up to Monday, although the fuel industry says it should really have increased by 14 percent up to €14.74.
National laws prevent gas bottle prices from rising or falling by more than five percent.
