Electricity prices in 2025. The government has good information

Electricity prices and the energy voucher are currently valid only until the end of 2025. The government has not yet presented its plan for 2025, but it may not be needed at all. Paulina Hennig-Kloska, head of the Ministry of Climate and Environment, believes that electricity prices may be lower next year.

Lower electricity prices in 2025?

The head of the Ministry of Climate, in an interview with Radio Zet, argues that next year electricity prices may be lower than they are now. This will happen by increasing the share of energy from renewable sources. Currently, we are approaching the level of 30 percent, but by 2030, as much as 56 percent of energy is to come from renewable sources. This is to translate into a 13- and 30-percent decrease in energy costs, respectively.

We are now moving towards 30 percent of energy from renewable sources, because the more of this type of energy there is in the energy mix, the cheaper the energy will be. (…) In a year, electricity prices will be lower, because we are getting off this post-crisis slope. We have now set tariffs for 1.5 years, so at the end of next year there is room for further tariff reductions and I am convinced that the next tariffs set by the independent Energy Regulatory Office (URE) will be lower than they are now.

– said the minister.

How much will we pay for electricity next year? This is unknown. Paulina Hennig-Kloska notes that prices on the Polish Power Exchange change practically from day to day and are getting lower and lower. At the same time, it is worth recalling that only last month the minister assured that if prices remained high, she would recommend maintaining protection for citizens in the form of freezing prices and energy vouchers.

Currently, prices are frozen at PLN 500 per MWh for households. Until the end of June, it was PLN 412, so Poles have already felt an increase in electricity bills in recent months.
