KYIV, Jan 14 – The volume of the motor fuel market, including petrol, diesel fuel liquefied gas, in Ukraine, in 2021 increased by 6%, to 12.22 million tons, according to the A-95 Consulting Group.

According to the group, the growth of the market is dictated by economic activity and de-shadowing of the sector.

"The increase in supplies was the result of not only the growing economic activity, especially in the agricultural sector and road construction, but also comprehensive efforts to combat the illegal market. Part of the volumes were brought out of the "shadow," but this sector, especially with regard to petrol, still accounts for up to 20% of the market," Serhiy Kuyun, the director of A-95 Consulting Group, said.
