Electricity market in Netherlands

The Netherlands is a single bidding zone run by TenneT. Offshore wind, rooftop solar and gas-fired power plants dominate the mix.

With one of the highest solar capacities per person in Europe, Dutch midday prices often fall to zero or below in spring and summer, while gas sets the price in the evening.

How to use these prices

If you have a dynamic electricity contract, the hourly price changes your bill directly: running the dishwasher, washing machine or EV charger in the cheapest hours instead of the evening peak can halve the cost of that energy. The cheapest consecutive hours are highlighted above for both today and tomorrow.

Frequently asked questions

When is electricity cheapest in Netherlands?

Usually at night and, on sunny days, around midday when solar output peaks. The most expensive hours are typically the morning and evening peaks. The cheapest 2- and 4-hour windows for today and tomorrow are shown above.

When are tomorrow's electricity prices for Netherlands published?

The European day-ahead auction closes at noon CET and results are published at around 12:45 CET. This page updates within about 15 minutes after that.

Is this the price I pay for electricity in Netherlands?

No. This is the wholesale price without VAT, taxes, network charges or the supplier's margin. It matters directly if you have a dynamic or spot-price contract; fixed-price contracts follow it only over months.

Why is the price in Netherlands different from neighbouring countries?

All European zones are coupled in one market. Prices are equal when cross-border lines have spare capacity and differ when lines are congested — then each zone's own supply and demand set its price.
