Reasons and causes for the increase in electricity prices
What are the causes of rising electricity prices? It seems that one of the main causes is the increase in gas price on international markets, used to produce about 40% of the electricity in Italy. It also adds more post demand COVIDweather factors (it rained less) and also political tensions in the international energy sector.
During the lockdown in 2020, when everyone was at a standstill, there was a sharp contraction in energy needs and a supply of electricity with a historic collapse in the price of electricity. May 2020 not only in Italy, but also internationally.
From second half of 2021 with the resumption of activities there was also a very strong demand for energy. Prices then began to rise until December 2021 when there was a record in the history of the electricity market: price of € 281.24 / MWh in the monthly average and a peak hour of well 533.19 € / MWh.
Let’s say if it wasn’t for thestate interventionthe costs on the bill would have quadrupled instead of doubled.
