Compare electricity and gas in the Netherlands: 31 tariffs from 8 suppliers
Of the 10 fitting tariffs (out of 17 for this choice, from 8 suppliers), Modelcontract Variabel (onbepaalde tijd) from Budget Energie is the cheapest for 2,500 kWh of electricity a year: €941.51 a year, which works out at about €78.46 a month (yearly estimate), including energy tax and VAT, excluding network operator charges, on a variable price (price sheet read on Budget Energie's own website (budgetthuis.nl) on ). That amount is 2,500 kWh × €0.32865 = €821.63 electricity, €119.88 fixed supply charges. We estimate it at today's variable prices incl. energy tax and VAT and the fixed supply charges; network operator charges are not counted and the energy tax reduction is not deducted. Network operator charges come on top and the energy tax reduction comes off; both are the same for every supplier at the same address.

Energy (use × price per kWh or m³) Fixed supply charges
Yearly use as you choose it: electricity in kWh with a single-rate meter, gas in m³, the unit the suppliers price gas in (we do not convert). Normal and off-peak rates are in the table but not used in this calculation.
Prices incl. energy tax and VAT, as on the supplier's price sheet or model contract, for the period it states, over 12 months. Variable prices can change; we do not forecast them.
Included: the supplier's fixed supply charges. Not included: network operator charges (set by the regional network operator) and the energy tax reduction per connection. They are the same for every supplier at the same address; we do not estimate them.
3 dynamic tariffs are in the table but not costed: their price changes by the hour. 10 tariffs do not say their prices include energy tax; we show them but do not rank them.
