Gas prices are down again this morning in the province.
The New Brunswick Energy and Utilities Board used the interrupter clause to set prices a day early again.
This clause is used to respond to sudden spikes up or down in petroleum product prices in order to meet reasonable prices and security of supply.
The new maximum price for regular self-serve is $93.3 – a decrease of about eight cents per litre, and the lowest prices in over a year.
This is due to a petroleum market slump.
Diesel and furnace oil didn’t change, but they could see massive dips of over 10 cents.
The weekly price adjustments happen tonight and reports say we’ll see regular fuel dip again by around four cents a litre.
The New Brunswick Energy and Utilities Board is closed to the public effective today, due to COVID-19.
