Chile accounted for the highest electricity price for industries in Central and Southern America, at 155 U.S. dollars per megawatt-hour in January 2025. By comparison, the industrial electricity price in Paraguay amounted to 36 U.S. dollars per megawatt-hour that month.

This table contains figures on consumer prices for electricity and gas. These are subdivided into transport prices, delivery prices and taxes (including and excluding VAT). The figures are published as weighted average monthly prices. The average energy prices published here are the prices as used for the consumer price index (CPI) up to and including May 2023. Prices of new contracts were observed at the CPI. Contracts that were offered by energy companies in previous periods, but not in the relevant reporting period, have been mathematically continued and included in the calculation of the average tariff. The average prices in this table may therefore deviate from the average prices that Dutch households pay for energy. Data available from January 2018 to May 2023. Status of the figures: The data are final. Changes as of July 20, 2023: None, this table has been discontinued. Due to a change in the underlying data and associated method for calculating average energy rates, a new table will be published on 20 July. See section 3. Changes as of February 13, 2023: From January 2023, the average delivery rates will not be published. With the introduction of the price cap, the average energy rates (supply rates) of fixed and variable energy contracts together were very useful to calculate a development for the CPI. As a price point, however, they are less useful. The delivery rates from January 2023 to May 2023 are published in a custom table based on the data for new variable contracts.

Germany Electricity decreased 29.73 EUR/MWh or 25.69% 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.

Germany's electricity prices is forecast to reach a two-year high of ***** euros per megawatt-hour in February 2025 before increasing to 94 euros per megawatt-hour in June the same year. 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 2023, 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.

The average wholesale electricity price in July 2025 in the United Kingdom is forecast to amount to****** British pounds per megawatt-hour, a decrease from the previous month. A record high was reached in August 2022 when day-ahead baseload contracts averaged ***** British pounds per megawatt-hour.
Electricity price stabilization in Europe Electricity prices increased in 2024 compared to the previous year, when prices stabilized after the energy supply shortage. Price spikes were driven by the growing wholesale prices of natural gas and coal worldwide, which are among the main sources of power in the region.

… and in the United Kingdom? The United Kingdom was one of the countries with the highest electricity prices worldwide during the energy crisis. Since then, prices have been stabilizing, almost to pre-energy crisis levels. The use of nuclear, wind, and bioenergy for electricity generation has been increasing recently. The fuel types are an alternative to fossil fuels and are part of the country's power generation plans going into the future.

Electricity prices in Europe are expected to remain volatile through 2025, with Italy projected to have some of the highest rates among major European economies. This trend reflects the ongoing challenges in the energy sector, including the transition to renewable sources and the impact of geopolitical events on supply chains. Despite efforts to stabilize the market, prices in countries like Italy are forecasted to reach ****** euros per megawatt hour by February 2025, indicating persistent pressure on consumers and businesses alike. Natural gas futures shaping electricity costs The electricity market's future trajectory is closely tied to natural gas prices, a key component in power generation. Dutch TTF gas futures, a benchmark for European natural gas prices, are projected to be ***** euros per megawatt hour in April 2025. This represents an increase of about ** euros compared to the previous year, suggesting that gas prices will continue to influence electricity rates across Europe. The reduced output from the Groningen gas field and increased reliance on imports further complicate the pricing landscape, potentially contributing to higher electricity costs in countries like Italy. Regional disparities and global market influences While European electricity prices remain high, significant regional differences persist. For instance, natural gas prices in the United States are expected to be roughly one-third of those in Europe by March 2025, at **** U.S. dollars per million British thermal units. This stark contrast highlights the impact of domestic production capabilities on global natural gas prices. Europe's greater reliance on imports, particularly in the aftermath of geopolitical tensions and the shift away from Russian gas, continues to keep prices elevated compared to more self-sufficient markets. As a result, countries like Italy may face sustained pressure on electricity prices due to their position within the broader European energy market.

The inflation rates of various energy commodities in the European Union began to decrease in late 2022 after skyrocketing earlier that year. Liquid fuels' inflation rate stood at -12 percent in November 2024 after having seen the steepest increase in June 2022 at 88 percent. These developments occurred following Russia's invasion of Ukraine, which has been the cause of uncertainty over Europe's security of gas supply, as well as intense energy price volatility. In 2024, the electricity and gas prices showed an increasing trend.
