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.

The Pumped Heat Electrical Storage (PHES) market is experiencing robust growth, driven by increasing demand for efficient and reliable energy storage solutions. The market, valued at approximately $2 billion in 2025, is projected to witness a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 15% from 2025 to 2033. This significant expansion is fueled by several key factors. Firstly, the global push towards renewable energy integration necessitates effective energy storage to address the intermittency of solar and wind power. Secondly, PHES technology offers a mature, scalable, and cost-effective solution compared to other energy storage methods, particularly for large-scale applications. Thirdly, supportive government policies and incentives promoting clean energy adoption are further accelerating market growth. Companies like Steffes, Caldwell Energy Company, MAN Energy Solutions, Antora Energy, Malta, MGA Thermal, Stash Energy, and Inficold are key players driving innovation and market penetration. However, challenges remain. High initial capital investment for PHES projects can hinder widespread adoption, particularly in regions with limited funding or financial support. Furthermore, the availability of suitable geographical locations for PHES plant construction, requiring specific topographical features, presents a geographical limitation. Despite these restraints, the long-term outlook for the PHES market remains exceptionally positive, driven by continuous technological advancements, decreasing costs, and escalating demand for grid stability and renewable energy integration. The market is expected to surpass $7 billion by 2033, solidifying PHES as a crucial component of the future energy landscape.
