Spanish Electricity Bills Set to Exceed €100 as Energy Costs Rise

Spanish electricity bill costs are on track to surpass €100 per month as energy prices soar ahead of autumn, according to consumer group Facua. The average monthly bill for households on the regulated PVPC tariff is forecast to hit €106.57 in September, marking a 30.5% rise from the September 2025 average and the highest September figure since 2022. Prices have been climbing steadily since spring, reaching €60.99 in April and ending August at €96.65.

On September 16, the wholesale market electricity price hit €104.63 per megawatt hour, while the monthly average was around €145, compared with €61 during the same period last year. Approximately 27.4% of domestic electricity customers are still on the regulated tariff, including many vulnerable households. Facua noted price hikes across all billing periods, with peak hours costing 30.36 cents per kWh, standard hours 20.96 cents, and off-peak hours 24.22 cents. The largest annual increase of 53.6% occurred during traditionally cheaper off-peak periods.

Other energy costs are also rising, with petrol and diesel nearing €2 per litre, butane prices increasing by almost 5%, and wholesale gas prices climbing by about 63%, from around €52 to over €85 per megawatt hour. Energy experts warn that geopolitical tensions and surging oil and gas prices will likely keep household energy expenses high in the coming months.
