Road Fuels Open Data Scheme

Summary

The UK's road fuel market has seen weakened competition and sub-optimal price comparison tools since 2019, leading to a challenge for consumers. To address this, a statutory open data scheme is planned, mandating all UK petrol stations to provide real-time fuel price data to enhance competition and reduce prices. The scheme is expected to be implemented by April 2025, with an estimated direct cost to businesses of £3.6 million.
