U.S. consumers will pay an average 6 cents a gallon less for gasoline this summer than a year ago, according to a forecast by the Energy Information Administration.

The EIA expects regular-grade gasoline will average $3.63 a gallon from April through September, down from $3.69 a gallon in 2012, the statistical arm of the Energy Department said today in its monthly Short-Term Energy Outlook. Diesel fuel averages will drop 1 cent to $3.94 a gallon.
