National Gas Average Jumps One Dollar in One Month

WASHINGTON, DC–The national average for a gallon of regular gasoline is up 10 cents from last week and one dollar since last month. The line graph below shows the steep rise from $2.98 on February 26 to $3.98 today. Crude oil prices remain high as the Iran conflict nears the 4-week mark. The national average could reach $4/gallon in the coming days for the first time since August 2022. Gasoline demand is also on the rise as spring break season continues, another factor in surging pump prices. 

The national average per kilowatt hour of electricity at a public EV charging station remained the same this past week at 41 cents.
