Just checked the expected price will be 6DKK (0.8eur) this evening, and thought that was crazy.. But it’s only -8 today.
did OL3 break down again?
Don’t Finland also import from Sweden? It is -40 in parts of the north where lots of electricity is generated (demand increase), and Forsmark is only running at half capacity (supply decrease). Prices follow a similar pattern in Sweden today, including in the north, btw.
It’s crazy I pay 0.18 chf per kWh… thats 0.2 euro.
Well. People went spot and have cheaper usually vs people went to fix price and don’t care. I’m on the second. Sauna today
WTF?
Laughs in 0.095 CAD / kwh in Canadia (and cries for the monthly or even yearly wait times to see a specialist doctor)
Sweden is importing electricity from Poland today so it must be really bad.
Wtf?? This is crazy expensive for a kWh
Ayoo! That electric counter can see in the future
Apparently front row seats at the energy war between east and west are very expensive today and tomorrow. Finland imported 34 % of its yearly consumption from russia in 2021, 18 % 2022, and none in 2023/2024.
in the meantime Estonia,Latvia and Lithuania are still importing from russia, and just few hours ago Estonia halted their export to finland, it was just 50MW so not a big deal but currently they still import from russia. weird how politics work…
This is why people living in cold climates should not rely (only) on heat pumps. Heat pumps are fine for the more mild climate of the UK, France, Spain or Germany; they are not really appropriate for climates with deep, sub-zero temperatures. A form of supplementary, backup heating, like a wood burner, is important.
So running a 2kW heater can run you between 4-5€ an hour?! Damn
And yet the LUX light festival continues in Helsinki…
We’re paying 0,084€ per kwh for our electricity. Set deal. Don’t need to worry about when to put the washing machine, dishwasher or sauna on. Win win.
