Eurostat figures show that electricity prices across Europe vary sharply, with households facing very different energy burdens depending on where they live. The average cost across 38 European countries (including EU members, candidate nations, and EFTA states) stood at US$33.35 (€28.7) per 100 kWh in 2025. The differences reflect a range of factors, including national energy mixes, supplier strategies, tariff structures, and government subsidies.
