FAQ

Why is the data from H1 2026?
Eurostat publishes household electricity prices semi-annually with approximately 6 months delay. H1 2026 is the most recent officially available period. The next update is expected around Q2 2026.
What is included in the electricity price?
The displayed price includes the energy component, network charges, taxes, levies and surcharges — i.e. the actual end-consumer price. Source: Eurostat (nrg_pc_204), consumption band 2,500–5,000 kWh/year.
Why do electricity prices differ so much across Europe?
The differences arise from varying tax rates, network charges, energy mix (countries with significant nuclear or hydropower tend to be cheaper), and political regulation. Subsidies and price caps in individual countries also play a role.
