Energy price brake: Calculate how much you will be relieved of the costs for electricity, district heating and gas

The bills for millions of gas and electricity customers will be cheaper thanks to the energy price brake. Since March 1st, government price brakes, worth billions, have been in effect to curb the drastically increased energy costs. The price limits apply to 80 percent of the consumption of the previous year. For each kilowatt hour in excess of 80 percent, customers have to pay the fixed energy price of the respective tariff. This should give an incentive to save energy. The price brakes are in force until the end of 2023. They can be extended until the end of April 2024.

Please enter your gross costs (i.e. including VAT) per kilowatt hour (kWh) in the calculator.

Notes: The gas price is capped at 12 cents per kilowatt hour gross. If your current price per kWh is below 9.5 cents, you will not benefit from the price brake. The calculator then shows no savings.

In addition, the calculator only calculates the costs of consumption. Possible monthly fees, bonuses or new customer premiums cannot be taken into account.
