How electricity prices are calculated
Prices on this page are day-ahead wholesale spot prices for each country or price zone, published hourly and shown here as hourly rates and daily averages.
Why do electricity prices differ between European countries?
Prices differ due to generation mix, demand, weather conditions, interconnections between countries, and market design.
Are these household electricity prices?
No. These are wholesale market prices (EUR/MWh). Household bills include taxes, grid fees, and supplier margins.
How often are prices updated?
Day-ahead prices for the next day are published each afternoon (around 13:00 CET) and refreshed through the day as new market data arrives.
What does "EU average" mean?
The EU average is calculated from available daily averages across all listed countries and price zones for the selected date.
