Around 80–85 öre per kilowatt hour (kWh) in southern Sweden and about half as high in the north. This is the current electricity price forecast, according to the pricing of future contracts on the Nasdaq electricity exchange.
This is slightly higher than last year, when the electricity market was characterized by unusually well-filled water reservoirs and a mild winter. This year, long-term forecasts also point to low-pressure weather, i.e. windy and heavy precipitation, which provides good conditions for electricity production, according to Johan Sigvardsson.
Add good conditions for nuclear power on top of that, plus low fuel prices on the continent.
Currently, the monthly price of electricity so far in November is 63–76 öre per kilowatt hour in the southern half of the country (highest in electricity area 4). In Norrland, electricity has cost just over 20 öre on average so far this month.
On top of the exchange prices, there is electricity tax, electricity retailers' surcharges, VAT and an electricity network fee of over one krona per kWh.
