Going nowhere fast is an apt description of the national average for a gallon of gas , which shed less than a penny since last week to reach $3.02. It has been close to the $3 level for five weeks yet faces stubborn resistance. Meanwhile, today’s national average per kilowatt hour of electricity at a public EV charging station remained at 34 cents. “I’d like to say that the national average will fall under $3 soon, but now I’m not so confident,” said Andrew Gross, AAA spokesperson. “It appears to be stuck despite low demand and cheaper oil. But 31 states already have an average below $3.”   According to new data from the Energy Information Administration (EIA), gasoline demand rose just a bit from 8.73 million b/d last week to 8.81, about 50,000 b/d lower than the same week in 2023. Meanwhile, total domestic gasoline stocks rose from 214.6 million barrels to 219.7, while gasoline production increased last week, averaging 10.0 million barrels daily.
