Honolulu — Average retail gasoline prices in Honolulu have not moved  in the past week, averaging $4.22/g yesterday, according to GasBuddy’s daily survey of 214 gas outlets in Honolulu. This compares with the national average that has fallen 0.4 cents per gallon in the last week to $3.57/g, according to gasoline price website GasBuddy.com.

Including the change in gas prices in Honolulu during the past week, prices yesterday were  unchanged compared to the same day one year ago and are 2.8 cents per gallon lower than a month ago. The national average has decreased 9.5 cents per gallon during the last month and stands 16.6 cents per gallon lower than this day one year ago.

“As driving season works closes out, the national average has been remarkably quiet, so far, but that may change as gasoline inventories declined a sizable about last week,” said GasBuddy.com Senior Petroleum Analyst Patrick DeHaan. “The Energy Information Administration in its weekly report issued last Wednesday highlighted one of the largest drops in gasoline inventories this year. That was likely a culprit for a late-week rally in gasoline futures and spot prices, which in turn may mean that as this week wears on, gasoline prices could start showing some upward movement. Any increases may be limited, however, by the impending end of summer driving season,” DeHaan said.

GasBuddy operates HonoluluGasPrices.com and over 250 similar websites that track gasoline prices at over 140,000 gasoline stations in the United States and Canada. In addition, GasBuddy offers a free smartphone app which has been downloaded over 25 million times to help motorists find the lowest gasoline prices in their area.

  1. To break the price-fixing grip of Tesoro and Chevron, plug your Tesla S, electric car into your household, solar array.

  2. I have electric car and solar system. Is it true that you save a lot of money after you install this system, but the cost of the installing is way too much so everybody can afford it. And this is very bad.

    • Well, the costs will go down eventually but I'm sure the governmnet will take care of this by introducing high taxes on solar energy
