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 still have not returned to pre-pandemic levels, such as in countries like Italy, where prices are forecast to reach ****** euros per megawatt hour in September 2025. 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 July 2025. 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. As of August 2025, electricity prices in Italy have decreased to ****** euros per megawatt hour, reflecting ongoing volatility in the market.

This statistic represents electricity prices for customers in the steel manufacturing industry in selected countries as of 2013. In terms of taxes, fees and surcharges, German customers paid **** euro cents per kilowatt hour.

This statistic represents the price of electricity to industrial consumers in selected European countries during the last six months of 2017, with a breakdown by country. In Ireland, consumers in the industrial sector paid around ***** euro cents plus tax for one kilowatt hour of electricity.

Industrial sector electricity prices in selected European countries

At **** euro-cents per kilowatt hour, Czechia has some of the cheapest industrial sector electricity rates, reaching less than half that of Malta’s. Malta’s industrial sector electricity price is among the highest in the European Union, reaching ***** euro-cents per kilowatt hour in December 2017. Compared to other countries, some EU member states have very high electricity prices overall. Electricity prices in Italy are in excess of ** U.S. dollar cents per kilowatt hour while Canada’s electricity prices average about **** U.S. dollar cents per kilowatt hour.

Power tariffs can vary by a large range by country - and often within individual countries as well. Differences in prices are due to a range of factors such as market price of fuel used, subsidies, and industry regulation. Supply and demand are also highly influential in changing prices. Certain weather patterns, such as high heat, can also raise prices when use of air conditioning becomes more prevalent. In virtually all markets, like that of the European Union, electricity rates also vary for industrial, residential, and commercial customers. Since expenditures for power can slab off a fair amount of a company’s revenue, industrial electricity tariffs – particularly when it comes to power-intensive industries, including the cement or metal manufacturing sectors - are often lower than residential rates. Household electricity prices are among the highest in Denmark, where those with an annual consumption of 1,000 to ***** kilowatt hours must pay about ** 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.

How to use the dataset

This dataset provides valuable insight into the electricity prices and renewable energy production in Spain. It can be used to analyze trends in prices and renewable energy generation over time.

Data is provided hourly granular, with the average total price of electricity (in euro/MWh) as well as the average price in both the free market and reference market (also in euro/MWh). The data also includes information on energy produced by both markets, expressed in MWh, as well as their respective market shares (both expressed in percent). Renewable energy production is also included, specified by source and expressed in MW.

To get started you will need to have a basic understanding of how electricity markets work. With that knowledge you will be able to make sense of various metrics such as total price, free market share or renewable generation % etc.

Firstly you need to decide what kind of information it is that you want to analyze from this dataset – whether it’s trends over time for particular sources of renewable energy or comparative analysis between different types of energy production methods. This will help determine which parts of the data are useful for your analysis.

Once done, you can start exploring various axes – i.e compare different metrics such as total power produced vs cost or pollutant emissions- across different days or even hour wise with respect to hours that have more demand etc . Highlighting any outliers gives meaningful insights into areas where further research is needed while correlating multiple factors helps discover hidden relationships between variables not necessarily linked through intuition alone! Ultimately giving users more depth and understanding when making decisions based on this data!

Research Ideas

• Identifying trends in renewable energy sources and the implementation of new policies to incentivize production from those sources;
• Estimating the effect of market forces and regulations on electrical pricing across different markets;
• Investigating correlations between geographical regions and their respective reliance upon certain energy sources or prices for electricity

Graph and download economic data for Petroleum and Coal Products: Energy Costs (MPU5750641) from 1987 to 2023 about coal, petroleum, cost, nondurable goods, energy, production, goods, manufacturing, and USA.

This table shows the average prices paid for natural gas and electricity. The total prices represent the sum of energy supply prices and network prices.

The total price is the price paid by an end-user, for instance a household or an industrial company consuming energy in their production process. Natural gas used for non-energy purposes or for electricity generation is excluded from the data.

Data available from: 1st semester of 2009

Status of the figures: The figures in this table are provisional for the two most recent semesters, and the annual figures follow the status of the second semester of the relevant reporting year. The remaining figures are final.

Changes as of September 30: Figures for the first half of 2025 have been added.

The network prices for final non-household customers will from now on, and dating back to 2009, be derived from administrative data sources. This now follows the methodology for households. Consumption data can be combined with tariffs that are published on the websites of the network companies, providing the necessary data to compile the prices. The change in methodology is carried out for the full time-series, making sure the network prices are consistent and price changes are not the result of varying measurement approaches.

When will new figures be published? New provisional figures will be published three months after the semesters end, at the end of September and at the end of March.
