Most P.E.I. fuel prices up a penny

Fuel prices are up slightly on P.E.I. with the Island Regulatory and Appeals Commission's first-of-the-month review of petroleum product prices.

Most prices are up one cent per litre.

- Gas prices increase one cent to a minimum of $1.066 per litre for regular self serve.

- Heating oil prices increase one cent to $0.804 per litre.

- Diesel prices increase one cent to a minimum of $1.162 per litre.

Propane prices at Kenmac were also up a cent. Irving propane prices are up 0.6 cents, and Superior Propane prices are unchanged.

In a news release, IRAC said the retail price adjustments were necessary because of an increase in wholesale prices.

The next scheduled price review is March 15.
