Notes: Fuel volumes are measured in gasoline gallon equivalents (GGEs).
* Propane prices reflect the weighted average of "primary" and "secondary" stations. Primary stations have dedicated vehicle services and tend to be less expensive. Secondary stations are priced for the tanks and bottles market, and tend to be more expensive. ** Electricity prices are reduced by a factor of 3.6 because electric motors are 3.6 times more efficient than internal combustion engines (per AFDC based on AFLEET 2019) and converted to GGEs at a rate of 33.7 kWh per GGE (per AFDC). Electricity prices are based on residential rates for light-duty vehicles because a majority of vehicle charging happens at home. These prices are lower than at most public or commercial medium/heavy-duty fleet charging stations because they do not include costs for infrastructure development, maintenance, operation, electric demand charges, network/host fees and profits, and highway motor fuel taxes or other fees collected in some states to replace those taxes.

This chart shows average monthly retail fuel prices in the United States from 2000 to 2021. The price of petroleum fuels (gasoline and diesel fuel) is the primary driver of liquid fuel (E85 and biodiesel) prices. This is because the liquid fuels are used in non-dedicated alternative fuel vehicles and can be substituted with petroleum fuels if their price rises too high, therefore decreasing demand until the price drops close to that of the petroleum fuel. However, natural gas and electricity prices have been buffered from this driver because transportation only constitutes a tiny portion of their markets. Liquefied natural gas (LNG) was first tracked in July 2016, and prices for electricity start in 2011 when the availability of commercial vehicles and charging stations became significant in the market.
