Today's Electricity Prices in Sweden: March 3, 2025

The electricity prices in Sweden today show a large variation throughout the day. During the early morning hours, between 00:00 and 05:59, the prices are at a low level, ranging from 1 öre to just under 3 öre per kWh. This is a great time to take advantage of low costs for electricity-intensive activities.

Free Electricity for Night Owls

It is particularly advantageous to use electricity between 22:00 and 23:59, as the electricity price drops to a negative level, meaning that it is practically free to bathe, shower, charge the car, or play games during this hour. This is a perfect opportunity for night owls to run the dishwasher or charge their electric vehicle.

Higher Electricity Prices During Morning Rush

From 07:00 to 09:59, electricity prices rise significantly to over 14 öre per kWh, peaking at 22 öre at 08:00. During these hours, it is best to avoid electricity-intensive activities if possible. A bath then costs 135 öre, and charging the electric vehicle can cost up to 1,357 öre.

Stabilization During the Day

After 10:00, prices stabilize again and drop to between 3 and 4 öre until 16:00. This is a good time to carry out daily chores without worrying about high electricity bills.

Interesting Facts About Electricity Costs

It is worth noting that if we had the lowest electricity price of today for the entire year, it would have cost -100 kronor to heat a normal-sized house of 160 sqm. With today's highest price, the same heating would cost 4,071 kronor. This shows how significant an impact electricity prices can have on households' total electricity costs.

Tips for Energy Saving

To maximize savings, households may consider planning their electricity-intensive activities during the hours when electricity prices are at their lowest. Charging the electric vehicle or running the dishwasher at night can lead to significant savings on the electricity bill.
