Georgia's statewide average price for regular gasoline fell 7 cents over the past week to $3.58 a gallon, according to AAA. The national average dropped 11 cents over the same period to $4.17 a gallon.
Why it matters
Georgia drivers are paying 59 cents a gallon less than the national average, though the state average is still 80 cents higher than a year ago. Filling a standard 15-gallon tank at the state average costs about $53.70.
Commercial DC fast charging in Georgia averaged 41 cents per kilowatt hour, compared with a national average of about 42 cents. Crude oil remained above $100 a barrel, a level AAA cited as a continuing pressure on pump prices.
The players
AAA
AAA, the American Automobile Association, is a nonprofit federation of motor clubs that publishes daily fuel price averages for U.S. states and metro areas.
The details
Metro averages ranged from $3.41 a gallon in Albany to $3.63 in Macon, with Atlanta at $3.61, Savannah at $3.62, and Cobb County at $3.60. AAA attributed the weekly decline partly to lower gasoline demand and production, while domestic gasoline supplies increased.
Timeline
Over the past week, Georgia and national gas prices declined.
Cobb County's average was reported at $3.60 a gallon on the morning of the report.
Roadmap
Georgia's average remains 80 cents above its level a year ago, even after this week's decline. The gap with the national average, at 59 cents below, shows the state continuing to price below the nation despite the broader run-up.
At $3.58 a gallon, a typical 15-gallon fill-up in Georgia costs about $53.70, so the week's 7-cent decline saves roughly $1 per tank. Drivers considering an electric vehicle can compare that cost against the 41-cent-per-kilowatt-hour rate for commercial fast charging in the state.
The takeaway
Georgia drivers can save money by tracking daily station averages before filling up, since prices vary by more than 20 cents between metro areas. Comparing fuel costs against charging rates also helps frame the total cost of owning an electric vehicle in the state.
