Speed upgrade and fuel usage?

#1
I just did a fleet save and my deut usage was like 100k for 100lf, 20hf, 10c, 5BS, 3 bombers and some Lcs. This seems like a big jump from what I was using a couple of days ago for a similar fleet. I did upgrade one of the engine tech levels. Would this jump in speed cause an increase in deut usage? thx.

Yes. Upgrading engine techs will speed up your fleet and also increase fuel consumption.
But if you slow down your speed to match the speed of the previous engine tech lvl, you will notice that you are using less fuel.
