Why your bill is higher than the spot price

The prices on this page are wholesale day-ahead — what suppliers pay on the Nord Pool / EPEX market. Your final retail bill adds:

ComponentTypeApprox (EU avg)
Wholesale spot priceVariable (this page)
Electricity tax / exciseFixed€ 0.005 – 0.20 /kWh
Grid / network feeFixed + variable€ 0.05 – 0.15 /kWh
VAT / sales tax% multiplier20 – 25 %
Supplier markup + monthly feeProvider-specific€ 0.005 – 0.05 /kWh

Rule of thumb: add 30–60% on top of the wholesale spot price to estimate your true per-kWh cost. The exact split depends on your country, your grid operator, and your contract type.

FAQZabrze

How is the electricity price determined?
Day-ahead prices are set each morning around 13:00 CEST by Nord Pool / EPEX, where suppliers and producers across Europe submit bids for each hour of the next day. The cheapest mix that meets demand wins, and that price applies to everyone in the bidding zone for that hour.
When is electricity cheapest?
Typically late at night (00:00–04:00) and around midday on sunny/windy days when renewables overproduce.
Can electricity prices go negative?
Yes. When wind + solar overproduce on a low-demand day, wholesale prices can drop below zero. This happens 50–100 hours per year in renewables-heavy zones.
Why is my electricity bill higher than the spot price?
The spot price is just one component. Your retail bill also includes electricity tax, grid/network fees, VAT and a supplier markup. Add roughly 30–60 % on top of the wholesale spot price to estimate your true per-kWh cost.
How accurate is this data?
Source: ENTSO-E Transparency Platform — the official EU regulators data feed. Updated every 10–20 minutes.
Can I save money by shifting consumption?
Yes — running large appliances during the cheapest window every day adds up over a year.
Are tomorrow's prices already known?
Day-ahead prices are auctioned around 13:00 CEST each day. Until then, only todays hourly prices are final. Once tomorrows auction closes, the full 24-hour breakdown appears on this page automatically.
