Market dynamics and future outlook

The demand for heating oil remains stable in Saxony at 29.3% of residential buildings, although purchasing activity in the Meißen district is currently rather low. The reasons include the uncertainty caused by the upcoming Building Energy Act (GEG), which comes into force in 2024 and requires advice before installing fossil fuel heating systems. Excluded from this regulation are heaters that have less than 4 or more than 400 kW, as well as low-temperature or condensing technology.

Geopolitical tensions and the associated market bottlenecks may cause heating oil prices to continue to move. Although oversupply can have a dampening effect on prices, the market situation remains unpredictable. OPEC+ has signaled it is ready to increase production if necessary - a factor that could potentially bring stability.

It therefore remains advisable for consumers to keep an eye on heating oil prices and compare offers in order to get the best deal. Heating oil additives can also help optimize the combustion process and reduce costs, which could be beneficial given the speculative nature of the market.
