The The Highlands heating oil market
The Highlands has one of the highest proportions of oil-heated homes in the UK and faces a distinctly different market from the rest of the country. Low supplier density, long delivery distances, challenging terrain, and the remoteness of many properties all contribute to prices that can run significantly above the national average in the most isolated areas. The main towns of Inverness, Fort William, and Wick are relatively well served, but communities in the Great Glen, Wester Ross, Sutherland, and Caithness face higher costs and fewer supplier options. Planning ahead and ordering in summer is particularly important here.
10 regional and independent suppliers deliver here as well as 12 national ones, and prices between them can vary by several pence a litre on the same day. It is worth getting more than one price before you order.
