Tariffs for energy suppliers in The Netherlands
Energy prices from suppliers are constantly changing. There isn’t one energy supplier that is always the most expensive or the cheapest for all consumers. The price depends on various factors, which are influenced by both the consumer and the supplier. Here, we’ve outlined a few key factors for you.
Type of contract
Energy suppliers offer three types of contracts: the newer dynamic energy contract, a variable contract, or a fixed contract. With a dynamic contract, you pay electricity and gas prices based on the current wholesale rates. In a variable contract, the rates change twice a year or more often, depending on market developments. A fixed contract allows you to choose a term of 1, 3, or 5 years, during which you pay the same price throughout the contract period. This provides certainty for both you and the supplier. Electricity and gas rates for fixed contracts are often lower than those for variable contracts. However, not all energy suppliers offer all types of contracts. Each supplier sets its own rates for electricity and gas within any given contract. In our comparison tool, you can filter by different contract types.
Strong competitors
Every energy supplier aims to attract as many new customers as possible. Due to the competition in the energy market, suppliers must make themselves appealing by offering competitive rates. As a result, energy suppliers try to convince you to switch to them by offering welcome discounts and promotional rates.
The good news is that you don’t have to compare prices yourself—we do it for you with our energy comparison tool. In just a few minutes, you can see who the cheapest energy supplier is for your situation, with the lowest-priced option always listed at the top.
Government charges
Government charges also play a role in the rates set by energy suppliers. A significant portion of the electricity and gas price consists of taxes, such as energy tax and VAT. The government determines the rates for these taxes annually, and they are the same for all suppliers. Therefore, you don’t need to consider these costs when comparing energy suppliers.
Your preferences, situation and usage
The exact amount you’ll pay each month also depends on your individual preferences, usage, and circumstances. The more gas and electricity you consume, the higher your bill will be. If you have solar panels or prefer renewable energy, the costs will vary accordingly. All of your preferences and usage patterns contribute to the price you pay. With our energy comparison tool, you can quickly find a new energy supplier that meets your needs using various filters.
