Energy inflation rates in the European Union have experienced significant fluctuations in recent years, with dramatic increases followed by sharp declines. The impact of geopolitical events, particularly Russia's invasion of Ukraine and the tensions in the Middle East, has led to intense volatility in energy prices across various commodities. As of June 2025, liquid fuels are projected to have a negative inflation rate of nine percent, a stark contrast to the peak of 88 percent seen in June 2022. Broader energy price trends The volatility in energy inflation rates is reflected in broader price indices. The harmonized index of consumer prices (HICP) for energy in the EU reached nearly 170 index points in October 2022, before declining slightly in 2023 and 2024. This surge was largely driven by increased fuel demand after the COVID-19 pandemic and sanctions on Russian fossil fuel imports. By comparison, the global energy price index stood at approximately 101.5 in 2024, with forecasts suggesting a decrease to below 80 by 2026. This was considerably lower than the HICP in the EU in 2025, which was around 150. Energy consumption patterns Despite price volatility, global primary energy consumption was continuously rising and is expected to increase until 2045. While renewable energy production is projected to grow in the upcoming years, oil and gas will remain the dominant energy sources worldwide in the next few decades. The two fossil fuels had a central role in the EU’s energy sector as well, having accounted for almost 65 percent of the region’s primary energy consumption in 2024.
