The Clean Cities and Communities Alternative Fuel Price Report for July 2024 is a quarterly report on the prices of alternative fuels in the U.S. and their relation to gasoline and diesel prices. This issue describes prices that were gathered from Clean Cities and Communities coalition directors and stakeholders between July 1, 2024 and July 15, 2024, and then averaged in order to determine regional price trends by fuel and variability in fuel price within regions and among regions. The prices collected for this report represent retail, at-the-pump sales prices for each fuel, including Federal and state motor fuel taxes.
Table 2 reports that the nationwide average price (all amounts are per gallon) for regular gasoline has decreased 12 cents from $3.65 to $3.53; diesel decreased 20 cents from $4.07 to $3.87; CNG increased 2 cents from $2.90 to $2.92; ethanol (E85) increased 3 cents from $2.96 to $2.99; propane decreased 3 cents from $3.45 to $3.42; and biodiesel (B20) decreased 21 cents from $3.94 to $3.73.
According to Table 3, CNG is 61 cents less than gasoline on an energy-equivalent basis and E85 is 36 cents more than gasoline on an energy-equivalent basis.
