The Ministry of Energy talked about the benefits of the moratorium on zeroing the fuel damper

The moratorium on zeroing the fuel damper from October 2025 to May 2026 will help stabilize gasoline prices in the domestic market. This was reported by the Russian Ministry of Energy.

"The introduction of a moratorium on zeroing the fuel damper will save the calculation of the damping allowance for motor fuel for its manufacturers and will help stabilize the price situation in the domestic market of motor fuel," RIA Novosti quoted the ministry as saying.

According to the agency's assessment, the abolition of the excise tax on jet fuel from jet fuel will increase the economic efficiency of the production of its winter varieties by increasing the maximum temperature of its filterability and solidification.
