Deputy Julien Bayou introduced an amendment that would allow cooking oil to be recycled to be converted into fuel. A method banned in France, unlike in Germany. However, some do not hesitate to wallow in oil. #ApollinMatin pic.twitter.com/dk1AOqtsNs

That’s it, we finally see the end! Very gradually, yes, but still. After almost a month of strikes and difficulties, the situation at the service stations is gradually improving. According to the latest figures from the government, which prefers to talk about stress rather than shortages, 20.9% of them still lack at least one type of fuel in France. And just 12.8% have a total deficit, a figure that is down sharply from last week when it was still around 20%. Can the crisis finally be behind us? In most departments, yes, almost. But not everyone is really in the same boat.
The tension in the supply of fuel in no way justifies the jump in prices at some gas stations. We do not allow artificially inflated prices. I urged DGCCRF to act. Inspections take place in @hautsdefrance https://t.co/RXJWH912tA

Still some tension
Indeed, some departments are still under pressure despite a slight improvement due to the end of the strike at most TotalEnergies refineries and warehouses. This is especially true in Puy-de-Dôme, where 58.3% of service stations lack at least one type of fuel. In Aina, it is more or less the same, as this situation affects 55.1% of the pumps. The figure is 51% in André-et-Loire and 49.4% in Saint-Saint-Denis. Finally, Nièvres completes this ranking with 48.3%. in Haute-Saone hasThe situation is not yet fully resolved, as 30% of stations experience supply problems.
.
Ile-de-France was also affected
And in Ile-de-France, how are things? Well, it’s not joy either. Indeed, 34.5% of service stations in Paris are still experiencing a complete shortage. No doubt due to a denser population and therefore greater demand. Once the pumps are refilled, they empty in just a few minutes. This is especially true of unleaded gasoline, which is why diesel fuel is often more affordable.
“There is no shortage, these are stations that empty too quickly,” fuel suppliers believehttps://t.co/1S0COOIn05 pic.twitter.com/QhPngDkazg
