Dutch Energy Prices – Electricity and Gas, Hour by Hour

See what electricity costs in the Netherlands right now, hour by hour for today and tomorrow, plus the gas price – with or without 21% VAT, and with your own supplier costs added if you like.

How to use the Dutch Energy Prices

  1. 1 Choose electricity or gas, and today or tomorrow. Tomorrow’s prices appear in the early afternoon, Dutch time.
  2. 2 Read the price for the current hour, the average, the lowest and highest hour and the chart. Green bars are the cheapest quarter of the hours, amber bars the most expensive.
  3. 3 Pick a block length to find the cheapest consecutive hours – handy for the dishwasher, washing machine, heat pump boost or charging an electric car.
  4. 4 Turn VAT on or off and enter your own extra costs (energy tax and your supplier’s markup) in cents to estimate what you would actually pay. Your choices are remembered in this browser, also for the widget on your start page.

What these prices are

The prices on this page are the day-ahead market prices for the Netherlands. Every day, electricity for the next day is traded in an auction on the European power exchange, in blocks of 15 minutes; the result is known in the early afternoon. This page shows the average per hour of those prices. Energy suppliers with a dynamic contract pass the market prices on to their customers, which is why the price can differ a lot between the middle of a sunny day and the evening peak. Prices can even drop below zero when wind and solar produce more power than is used.

Gas is priced per gas day, which runs from 06:00 to 06:00 Dutch time, not per hour. The gas price is based on the Dutch TTF market and is published rounded to whole cents.

The prices come from the public price API of EnergyZero. We ask for them without VAT and add the 21% VAT ourselves, so nothing is lost to rounding.

Not the same as what you pay

The market price is only one part of your bill. A contract price also includes:

  • Energy tax (energiebelasting) per kWh or per m³, set by the Dutch government and changing each year.
  • Your supplier’s costs: a fixed markup per kWh or m³ and a monthly fee.
  • VAT of 21% on the total.

Use the field for extra costs to add energy tax and your supplier’s markup (in cents per kWh or m³, excluding VAT) and the page shows the estimated all-in price per hour. The exact figures are on your contract and your supplier’s website.

How to use the hourly prices

  • Shift flexible use to the cheapest hours: dishwasher, washing machine, dryer, charging an electric car or topping up a home battery.
  • Compare days: tomorrow’s prices tell you today whether tomorrow is a good day to run a heavy load.
  • Check the block: the cheapest run of 1–4 hours shows when a program of that length is cheapest.

The cheapest and most expensive quarter of the hours is shown in green and amber, so you see at a glance when electricity is relatively cheap or dear on that day. A “cheap” hour on a high-priced day can still cost more than an “expensive” hour on another day.

Frequently asked questions

Why does the electricity price change every hour?

The price of electricity on the day-ahead market is set per 15 minutes, depending on expected demand and on how much wind, solar and other power is available; this page shows the average per hour. Suppliers with a dynamic contract pass the market prices on.

When are tomorrow’s prices published?

Usually in the early afternoon, Dutch time. Until then the Tomorrow button is switched off.

Is this the price I pay on my bill?

No. These are market prices. Your bill also has energy tax, your supplier’s markup and fees, and VAT. Enter your extra costs in cents to get an estimate; the exact amounts are in your contract.

Can the electricity price be negative?

Yes. When wind and solar produce more than the grid needs, the market price can drop below zero for a few hours. The chart then draws those bars below the zero line.

Why is the gas price one number per day?

Gas is traded per gas day, which runs from 06:00 to 06:00. Before 06:00 the previous day’s gas price still applies.
