Since all of Europe decided to buy diesel cars the consumption have gone up and we're now importing diesel from the USA and Russia, which have to be purified to meet European regulations. This have resulted in a lack of refining capacity which I'm told is what's pushed the price upwards. Of course it may just be down to greedy oil companies looking to make a buck.

Diesel is more than petrol here as well, which is a truly unique scenario that never happened before.
