Average energy prices for consumers

This table contains consumer prices for electricity and gas. Weighted average monthly prices are published broken down into transport rate, delivery rates and taxes, both including and excluding VAT. These prices are published on a monthly basis.
The prices presented in this table are used to compile the CPI. Prices for newly offered contracts are collected. For contract types that are no longer offered, but have been in previous reporting periods, are imputed. The average can therefore diverge from the prices paid for energy contracts by Dutch households.

Data available from: January 2018

Status of the figures:
When first published, the figures are provisional. These will become definitive with the following month’s publication.

Changes as of 13 February:
Data on the most recent period have been added and/or adjustments have been implemented.
With the introduction of the price cap, the average energy rates (delivery rates) of fixed and variable energy contracts together remain useful for calculating a development for the CPI. However, as a pricelevel, they are less useful. Therefore, they are not shown in this table from January 2023. In a customised table, average energy prices are published. In this publication, only data concerning new variable contracts are taken into account.

When will new figures be published?
New figures will usually be published between the first and second Thursday of the month.
