What these prices are
They are the wholesale prices of the European day-ahead market for each bidding zone, published around 13:00 CET for the next day. Households on dynamic or hourly tariffs pay them directly, plus VAT, grid fees, taxes and the supplier's margin. On fixed-price contracts they show when the grid is under more pressure.
Since October 2025 the market clears every 15 minutes; we show the average of each clock hour in local time. Sources: ENTSO-E Transparency Platform and Bundesnetzagentur | SMARD.de (CC BY 4.0). Currency conversion with the daily reference rates of the European Central Bank.
