Slovenian fuel prices expected to decrease starting November 17

Fuel prices in Slovenia are expected to decrease on Tuesday, November 17, 2026, according to calculations by Finance and Napovedgoriv.si. The anticipated price drops affect 95-octane gasoline, diesel, and heating oil at regulated service stations located outside motorways and expressways.

Predicted fuel price changes

According to Finance, the price for one liter of 95-octane gasoline will be approximately 1.445 euros starting November 17, 2026. Data from Napovedgoriv.si provides a slightly different projection, estimating the price for one liter of 95-octane gasoline at 1.444 euros for the same date.

Diesel prices are also expected to fall. Finance predicts the price for one liter of diesel will be approximately 1.80 euros starting November 17, 2026. Napovedgoriv.si estimates the diesel price will be 1.798 euros per liter. For consumers purchasing 50 liters of diesel, this would result in a savings of 2.50 euros.

Heating oil prices are also projected to decline. Finance calculates the price for one liter of heating oil will be approximately 1.42 euros starting November 17, 2026. Napovedgoriv.si projects a price of 1.421 euros per liter. Consumers purchasing 1,000 liters of heating oil would see a savings of 50 euros.

For those purchasing gasoline, a 50-liter purchase would result in a savings of 3.10 euros starting November 17, 2026. These specific price predictions from Finance assume that taxes and other levies remain unchanged.

Taxation and European Union policy

The current price predictions from Finance refer specifically to regulated prices at service stations located outside motorways and expressways. These calculations do not include potential changes to the tax structure that were discussed by European officials.

On Monday, November 14, 2026, EU finance ministers confirmed the possibility of Slovenia reducing taxes on gasoline and diesel for six months. Such a move would allow taxes to be set at levels below the European minimum. If these EU tax reductions are implemented, final pump prices could potentially be reduced by approximately 30 cents.

Finance Minister Andrej Šircelj stated that the state will adjust taxes based on the movement of oil derivative prices in the market. The minister expressed hope that potential new growth in final fuel prices will be lower over the next six months.

Market and regulatory context

The anticipated decrease in fuel costs reflects the ongoing monitoring of oil derivative prices in the market. Finance Minister Andrej Šircelj indicated that the state's tax adjustments are linked to these market movements. This mechanism allows the government to respond to fluctuations in the cost of oil products.

The distinction between regulated service stations and those on motorways remains an important factor for consumers. The current projections from Finance are based on the regulated pricing models used at stations located outside the motorway and expressway networks. These projections provide a baseline for expected costs, assuming no sudden changes to the existing tax and levy framework.
