What influences kerosene price in Europe?

Aviation kerosene price in Europe is influenced by several factors that vary from country to country:

  • Local refining capacity β€” countries with large refineries (Netherlands, Germany, France) have lower supply costs, but higher taxes compensate for this advantage.
  • Aviation fuel taxes and excise duties β€” vary significantly: from zero in some countries (under international conventions) to additional environmental taxes in Scandinavia and the Netherlands.
  • Logistics costs β€” transporting kerosene from refinery to airport adds 2-5% to the price, more for geographically isolated airports.
  • Competition among suppliers β€” major airports with multiple suppliers have more competitive prices than regional hubs with a single supplier.
  • Environmental regulations β€” EU ETS (emissions trading system) and SAF (Sustainable Aviation Fuel) requirements add supplementary costs, especially in Nordic countries.

For Romania, kerosene price is mainly influenced by the Mediterranean market quotation (Med Jet) and supply costs at Otopeni, Cluj and Timisoara airports.
