Sky-high electricity prices – but more residents of Norrbotten are locking in their contracts

Electricity prices have increased in Norrbotten due to various factors, prompting more residents to secure fixed-price contracts.

Electricity prices in Norrbotten, located in the first electricity price zone, have soared recently due to a combination of persistent cold weather, calm winds, low water levels in reservoirs, and developments like the Aurora Line and increased electricity exports. These factors contribute to a complicated energy landscape, where analysts are now predicting that summer prices may also rise beyond levels seen in previous years, raising concerns among local consumers.
