The Department of Energy (DOE) is continuing its coordination with oil companies to sustain and expand fuel discount programs for motorists, particularly as rising global oil prices continue to affect transport costs.
The DOE said the initiative is aimed at helping public utility vehicle drivers, transport network vehicle service drivers, delivery riders, and other motorists manage their daily fuel expenses. These sectors are among those directly affected by price movements in the international oil market, as fuel costs form a major part of their livelihood and operating expenses.
As part of the effort, the department regularly releases an updated list of gasoline stations offering fuel discounts. The list includes participating fuel stations, designated discount days, loyalty programs, and other promotional offers that motorists may avail of.
The DOE said these programs are intended to give drivers and riders more options to reduce fuel expenses, especially those who depend on daily travel for income.
The agency’s continuing engagement with oil firms also seeks to ensure that discount programs remain accessible and responsive to the needs of Filipino motorists.
Through these initiatives, the DOE aims to help ease the burden of higher fuel prices while supporting the daily mobility and livelihood of drivers, riders, and the riding public.
