What is compared?
Residential minimum, maximum, and average prices per kWh are shown by country with both local-currency and USD reference values.
Finance & Pricing
Electricity prices
Compare residential electricity prices by country in local currency and USD reference values.
Cost assumptions
Read country electricity prices with local tariffs and exchange-rate basis together
To compare electricity costs fairly, it helps to view local-currency tariffs next to USD-converted values because taxes, subsidies, and tiered billing differ by country.
This page lists residential electricity as local minimum, maximum, and average prices per kWh, and shows USD-converted values in the same rows.
Local tariff values reflect each country's billing system. Check the notes where tiered pricing, lifeline rates, fuel adjustments, subsidies, or regional utilities affect the numbers.
USD conversion uses the same effective date as the exchange-rates dataset, so the ranking reflects both tariff assumptions and exchange-rate timing.
Why include exchange rates?
Local prices alone are hard to compare across countries, so a common reference currency is provided as a secondary comparison value.
Why read the notes?
Tiered tariffs, subsidies, tax treatment, and regional utilities can change how the average should be interpreted.
How should sorting be used?
The default sort is descending USD average price. You can also sort by country, region, local average, USD average, or effective date from the table headers.
Electricity prices are policy-sensitive, so read country notes and exchange-rate dates alongside the ranking.
