What you need to know about fuel security in NSW

The NSW Government, together with the Australian Government, is preparing for a range of fuel disruption scenarios linked to the conflict in the Middle East.

The National Fuel Security Plan has four levels of action – we are currently at level 2 ‘Keeping Australia Moving’.

We can all do our part to keep NSW and Australia moving:

• At the petrol pump, buy what you need, when you need it – no more. There is currently enough fuel overall but overbuying can deprive others, particularly in regional communities.
• If you’re storing fuel at home, only store small quantities. Fuel vapours are highly flammable, so it is best to only keep what you need for things like the mower or generator.
• Use FuelCheck for daily information on fuel prices and availability across the state. You can also step up and be a bowser buster. Use FuelCheck to report price mismatches at the pump to help ensure everyone in NSW is getting a fair price.

Support is available for individuals, households, communities and businesses to help manage fuel costs and cost-of-living pressures.
