Cover Story: Within an optimal currency area, the synchronization of fuel prices is crucial as it supports the effective implementation of policies and promotes macroeconomic stability. Our study examines the correlation between the price paths in the gasoline and diesel markets at the national level in the EU. Using data from 2017 to 2022, we construct networks in which the nodes represent EU member states, and the edges denote significant temporal correlations in fuel prices between these states. Empirical evidence suggests that diesel markets exhibit a more distinctive pattern of price co-movements than gasoline markets. Furthermore, the implementation of fuel taxation policies appears to have a negative impact on fuel price co-movements. View this paper
