Today, the price of electricity rises to an average of 2.46 kronor per kilowatt hour in southernmost Sweden. It is the most expensive day so far this year.

It is cold, and weak winds with little wind power production, both in Sweden, Denmark and Germany. Then the price of electricity in the southern part of the country is skyrocketing. In electricity area 4, southern Götaland, the price lands at 2.46 kronor/kWh on average over the day, with peaks of almost five kronor on Tuesday afternoon/evening.

Even in electricity area 3, northern Götaland and Svealand, the average price will be unusually high, at SEK 2.13, also at a record level for 2025, according to the electricity exchange Nord Pool.

In Norrland, the price is clearly lower on Tuesday, 20-40 öre/kWh.

On top of the stock exchange price, there is electricity tax, VAT and electricity network fee of well over one krona per kWh.
