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.

How we calculate

  • 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.
  • No supplier pays for placement. The full rules: method.
