Fuels: Prices
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, how many fuel retailers are participating in the Fuel Finder scheme.
Answered by Martin McCluskey
Approximately 95% of all UK petrol filling stations (~7,900) are registered with Fuel Finder, including all the major operators, although the proportion of total fuel volume sold by those registered is expected to be materially higher.
Under the Motor Fuel Price (Open Data) Regulations 2025, it is the responsibility of Motor Fuel Traders to register and report fuel prices within 30 minutes of a change.
The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) are working with the appointed Fuel Finder aggregator on potential cases of non-compliance, including non-registration, for consideration of enforcement action in line with its enforcement principles.
Our analysis suggests the Fuel Finder scheme could save households who own a car an average of around £40 a year.
