Our newsroom checked the New Brunswick Energy and Utilities Board website on Thursday morning, but there was no change in the cost for regular self-serve.

But if you use diesel, hikes are a reality this morning. It’s going to cost you 13 cents more per litre.

The max price for diesel is now at $2.86.

Furnace oil also went up by 13.1 cents a litre to a maximum of $2.79/

The usual weekly price adjustments by the New Brunswick Energy and Utilities Board will come at 12:01 am Friday.
