Germany Electricity decreased 17.60 EUR/MWh or 15.21% since the beginning of 2025, according to the latest spot benchmarks offered by sellers to buyers priced in megawatt hour (MWh). This dataset includes a chart with historical data for Germany Electricity Price.

Electricity prices in Germany are forecast to amount to ***** euros per megawatt-hour in November 2025. Electricity prices in the country have not yet recovered to pre-pandemic levels. Electricity price recovery German electricity prices began recovering back to pre-energy crisis levels in 2024, a period driven by a complex interplay of factors, including increased heating demand, reduced wind power generation, and water scarcity affecting hydropower production. Despite Germany's progress in renewable energy sources, with over ** percent of gross electricity generated from renewable sources in 2024, the country still relies heavily on fossil fuels. Coal and natural gas accounted for approximately ** percent of the energy mix, making Germany vulnerable to fluctuations in global fuel prices. Impact on consumers and future outlook The volatility in electricity prices has directly impacted German consumers. As of April 1, 2024, households with basic supplier contracts were paying around ** cents per kilowatt-hour, making it the most expensive option compared to other providers or special contracts. The breakdown of household electricity prices in 2023 showed that supply and margin, along with energy procurement, constituted the largest controllable components, amounting to **** and **** euro cents per kilowatt-hour, respectively. While prices have decreased since the 2022 peak, they remain higher than pre-crisis levels, underscoring the ongoing challenges in Germany's energy sector as it continues its transition towards renewable sources.

Industrial electricity prices including electricity tax reached ***** cents per kilowatt-hour in Germany, as of March 2025. Figures fluctuated during the specified timeline. The largest share of industrial electricity costs was due to energy procurement, network charges and distribution.

Germany - Electricity prices: Non-household, medium size consumers was EUR0.20 Kilowatt-hour in December of 2024, according to the EUROSTAT. Trading Economics provides the current actual value, an historical data chart and related indicators for Germany - Electricity prices: Non-household, medium size consumers - last updated from the EUROSTAT on December of 2025. Historically, Germany - Electricity prices: Non-household, medium size consumers reached a record high of EUR0.20 Kilowatt-hour in December of 2024 and a record low of EUR0.08 Kilowatt-hour in December of 2017.

In 2025, the electricity tax for private households in Germany amounted to **** euro cents per kilowatt-hour. Energy procurement and distribution made up the largest part of the costs, at around ** euro cents per kilowatt-hour.

In the third quarter of 2025, Bermuda had the highest household electricity prices worldwide, followed by Ireland, Italy, and Germany. At the time, Irish households were charged around 0.44 U.S. dollars per kilowatt-hour, while in Italy, the price stood at 0.42 U.S. dollars per kilowatt-hour. By comparison, in Russia, residents paid almost 10 times less. What is behind electricity prices? Electricity prices vary widely across the world and sometimes even within a country itself, depending on factors like infrastructure, geography, and politically determined taxes and levies. For example, in Denmark, Belgium, and Sweden, taxes constitute a significant portion of residential end-user electricity prices. Reliance on fossil fuel imports Meanwhile, thanks to their great crude oil and natural gas production output, countries like Iran, Qatar, and Russia enjoy some of the cheapest electricity prices in the world. Here, the average household pays less than 0.1 U.S. dollars per kilowatt-hour. In contrast, countries heavily reliant on fossil fuel imports for electricity generation are more vulnerable to market price fluctuations.

Electricity price forecasting (EPF) is a branch of energy forecasting which focuses on predicting the spot and forward prices in wholesale electricity markets. Over the last 15 years electricity price forecasts have become a fundamental input to energy companies’ decision-making mechanisms at the corporate level.

This dataset is a sample of day ahead spotprices in Denmark(DK) and neighboring countries. Prices in DKK are not updated during weekends and on public holidays. Prices in DKK will be updated at the first coming work day.

In Nord Pool Spot market players can buy and sell electricity for delivery the following day in their own area - Norway, Sweden, Finland, Denmark or Germany. The day-ahead prices indicate the balance between supply and demand. Nord Pool

Electricity Day ahead Spot Prices Data

In Nord Pool Spot market players can buy and sell electricity for delivery the following day in their own area - Norway, Sweden, Finland, Denmark or Germany. The day-ahead prices indicate the balance between supply and demand.

Data is from 2024-02-22 to 2015-02-01

Hour UTC: A date and time (interval), shown in UTC time zone, where the values are valid. 00:00 o’clock is the first hour of a given day interval 00:00 - 00:59 and 01:00 covers the second hour (interval) of the day and so forth. Please note: The naming is based on the length of the interval of the finest grain of the resolution.

Hour DK: A date and time (interval), shown in Danish time zone, where the values are valid. 00:00 o’clock is the first hour of a given day, interval 00:00 - 00:59, and 01:00 covers the second hour period (interval) of the day and so forth.

Price area: Same as bidding zone. Denmark is divided in two price areas (bidding zones) divided by the Great Belt. DK1 is west of the Great Belt and DK2 is east of the Great Belt.

Note: The SYSTEM price is the unlimited balancing price at the Nordic electricity market irrespective of capacity congestions in the individual interconnections between the areas. The system price therefore serves as a reference price to which the area prices can be compared.

If Price area is “DK”, the data covers all Denmark. (Some datasets contain a limited number of price areas.)

Spot price (DKK): Day ahead spot price in the price area. (The day-ahead prices indicate the balance between supply and demand.)
