Towards the end of 2007, fuel prices exceeded £1 per litre with a two-pence rise in fuel tax in October, resulting in the highest diesel prices and the fourth highest for petrol in Europe. [4] New protests were planned by two unconnected groups, one called Transaction 2007 and the Road Haulage Association (RHA). [ 4 ]
The British imperial gallon (frequently called simply "gallon") is defined as exactly 4.54609 dm 3 (4.54609 litres). [4] It is used in some Commonwealth countries, and until 1976 was defined as the volume of water at 62 °F (16.67 °C) [ 5 ] [ 6 ] whose mass is 10 pounds (4.5359237 kg).
Excise as at 1 August 2012 totals 50.524 cents per litre (NZ $2.30/imp gal; $1.91/US gal on petrol. In addition the national compulsory Accident Compensation Corporation motor vehicle account receives a contribution of 9.9 cents per litre (45 ¢/imp gal; 37 ¢/US gal). The ethanol component of bio blended petrol currently attracts no excise duty.
This volume of natural gas has the same energy content as one US gallon of gasoline (based on lower heating values: 900 BTU/cu ft (9.3 kWh/m 3) of natural gas and 114,000 BTU/US gal (8.8 kWh/L) for gasoline). [22] One GGE of CNG pressurized at 2,400 psi (17 MPa) is 0.77 cubic feet (22 litres; 5.8 US gallons).
The price of gasoline in the U.S. is shaped by a variety of factors, including the cost of crude oil, distribution and marketing costs, profits and taxes. These are big picture issues that are well...
The largest component of the average price of $2.80/gallon of regular grade gasoline in the United States from 2012 through 2021, representing 54.8% of the price of gas, was the price of crude oil. The second largest component during the same period was taxes—federal and state taxes representing 17% of the price of gas.
The Energy and Climate Intelligence Unit said the cost would have been much lower if the UK energy system had more renewables.
1 gal-equivalent (natural gas) = 0.15 gal (gasoline) A dedicated AFV which operates solely on alcohol would divide the alcohol fuel economy by the energy-equivalency factor of 0.15. As an example, a dedicated AFV that achieves 15 mpg fuel economy while operating on alcohol would have a CAFE calculated as follows: [ 16 ] : 10
