Natural gas prices have decreased significantly in early 2026, but electricity prices remain high across Europe. The average electricity price in the EU was €0.28 per kWh, a slight drop from the previous year, while gas prices fell to €0.11 per kWh. However, electricity costs vary greatly between member states, with Romania experiencing a 51.9% increase. The disparity in energy prices reflects ongoing geopolitical tensions and the gradual withdrawal of government support measures. Despite some reductions, electricity remains more expensive than pre-crisis levels, and the burden on households varies significantly based on purchasing power and national market conditions.
