Sweden runs one of the world's lowest-carbon electricity grids: hydropower (~40%), nuclear (~30%) and wind (~20%) together cover the bulk of the 165 TWh annual demand. Svenska kraftnät, the state TSO, splits the country into four bidding zones (SE1 North to SE4 South) reflecting the bottleneck in the central north-south transmission corridor — a structural feature that gives SE4 (Malmö) prices typically 2–4× SE1 (Luleå). The southern reactors at Ringhals and Forsmark were the subject of a 2023 government reversal: the previous closure plan was scrapped and four new reactors are now planned for the 2030s.

Wind has grown explosively, from 17 TWh in 2018 to 35 TWh in 2024, with northern locations dominating. Day-ahead clearing on Nord Pool.

The northern zones host most heavy industry — including the H2 Green Steel and Hybrit steel-decarbonisation projects — and consume an increasing share of the country's hydro surplus.

FAQSweden

How is the electricity price determined?
Day-ahead prices in Sweden are auctioned each morning around 13:00 CEST on Nord Pool / EPEX. The cheapest mix of generation that meets demand wins; that price applies for the next 24 hours.
When is electricity cheapest?
Today's average wholesale price in Sweden is 0.654 kr /kWh. Cheapest hours typically fall between 00:00–04:00 CEST and around midday on sunny / windy days.
Why is my electricity bill higher than the spot price?
The wholesale spot price you see here is one component. Your retail bill in Sweden also adds electricity tax, grid fees, VAT and a supplier markup — total roughly 30–60 % above wholesale.
How accurate is this data?
Source: ENTSO-E Transparency Platform, the EU regulator's data feed. Updated every 10–20 minutes.
Are tomorrow's prices already known?
Tomorrow's day-ahead prices for Sweden appear on this page automatically once Nord Pool / EPEX closes the auction around 13:00 CEST each day.
