The Ministerio de Energía y Minas de Guatemala has provided updates on fuel prices and public safety recommendations through its official social media channels. The ministry, responsible for overseeing energy policy and resource management in Guatemala, reported on current gasoline prices and issued safety advice during a popular local tradition.
On November 8, 2025, the ministry stated, "Precios de las gasolinas siguen a la baja. Conoce los precios de referencia en #ElMEMInforma. #Gasolina #Guatemala https://t.co/ScIdfUIYDU". This announcement comes amid ongoing monitoring of fuel prices in the country.
A subsequent post on November 11, 2025, shared more detailed information: "El Ministerio de Energía y Minas informa sobre los precios promedio de los combustibles en el área metropolitana para esta semana, de acuerdo al monitoreo realizado el 10 de noviembre por la Dirección General de Hidrocarburos. #PreciosEstables #DGH #Hidrocarburos https://t.co/foraJLM5Zb".
In addition to economic updates, the ministry addressed public safety concerns related to traditional activities. On November 11, 2025, it posted: "Volar barriletes es una hermosa tradición para disfrutar en familia, ¡pero hazlo con seguridad! Aléjate de cables y postes eléctricos. No uses hilos metálicos ni intentes recuperar barriletes enredados. Busca siempre espacios abiertos. #EnergíaSegura #BarriletesLibresdeCables https://t.co/s8DwvqypyN".
The Guatemalan Ministry of Energy and Mines routinely provides guidance on energy matters and promotes safe practices during national festivities such as kite flying—a custom especially observed around All Saints’ Day in early November. The Directorate General of Hydrocarbons regularly monitors fuel markets to inform consumers about price trends.
