German Government Debates Fuel Price Relief Amid Public Anger and Coalition Tensions

German fuel prices rose sharply on September 15, with E10 gasoline increasing by €0.20 per liter at noon to reach €3.03 in southern Berlin, sparking public anger and highlighting rural dependence on cars. Chancellor Friedrich Merz promised imminent action but cited ongoing coalition talks, while Deputy Government Spokesperson Steffen Meyer attributed price hikes to Middle East conflicts. The government previously introduced a fuel rebate from May to June 2026 but ruled it out due to budget constraints. The SPD advocates for a fuel price cap financed by an excess profit tax on energy companies, while the AfD seeks to abolish the CO₂ tax and reduce VAT on fuel. Regional elections in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania on September 20 show AfD leading at 38% versus SPD at 34%. The Federal Finance Ministry plans to push for an EU-level excess profits tax at a meeting in Dublin, supported by Spain and Poland.
