In late August 2026, Repsol announced an extension of fuel discount campaigns in Spain through September. These initiatives aimed to assist individual customers and professionals through the Waylet app and Solred card, with some savings reaching up to 45 cents per liter.

By mid-September, the focus shifted toward industry-wide concerns regarding rising costs. The Spanish Confederation of Service Station Entrepreneurs (CEEES) formally requested urgent fiscal relief from the Ministry of Economy. The group called for the reinstatement of a 10% reduced VAT on automotive fuels and a temporary reduction in the Special Tax on Hydrocarbons (IEH) to mitigate the impact of rising international petroleum prices and prevent sharp price increases scheduled for October 1.
