澳大利亚政府确认将于8月2日午夜终止燃油消费税减免计划12。财政部长吉姆·查默斯表示，政府从未打算让这项计划成为永久措施12。该折扣原本为每升32澳分，自6月以来已降至每升16澳分2。
驾驶者将从周一起面临汽油价格上升2。全国无铅汽油平均价格约1.93澳元/升，较7月22日的1.80澳元/升已上升13澳分2。NRMA发言人彼得·库里表示，预计价格将上升几澳分，涨幅接近17澳分而非16澳分，因为通胀调整也将于同一天实施2。截至7月21日，澳大利亚拥有42天的燃油储备2。财政部警告全球油市缓冲能力较弱，难以应对第二次油价冲击1。
Australia's government has confirmed that the fuel excise tax discount will cease at midnight on August 2, ending weeks of uncertainty about whether the measure would be extended further.12 The initiative, which was introduced in April to cushion the impact of rising oil prices, was never intended to become a permanent fixture.1
Treasurer Jim Chalmers stated that "it was never the government's intention to make this permanent."2 The discount began at 32 cents per liter but was reduced to 16 cents per liter from July onward.12 Motorists can expect fuel prices to rise by several cents per liter following the deadline, though industry representatives suggest the increase will be gradual rather than abrupt.2 The national average price for unleaded petrol stood at approximately 1.93 Australian dollars per liter as of late July, up from 1.80 dollars per liter on July 22, representing a 13-cent increase.2 The anticipated rise following the discount's expiration is expected to approach 17 cents per liter, partly due to an inflation adjustment scheduled for the same day.2
Australia maintains 42 days of fuel reserves as of late July.12 Oil prices have remained volatile, with prices briefly surpassing 100 dollars per barrel before declining to 86.36 dollars.1
