Electricity prices in Malta

Malta's electricity comes from gas-fired plants on the island and an undersea interconnector to Sicily, with rooftop and ground-mounted solar supplying a growing share. The state-owned Enemalta is the sole supplier, and household tariffs are set by the government and the Regulator for Energy and Water Services, which has shielded consumers from wholesale swings.

Bills are issued in euro and use rising consumption blocks, with a low rate for modest use and progressively higher rates for larger consumption, plus an eco-reduction for households that stay within set limits. There is no gas network for heating, so homes rely on electricity for air conditioning in the hot summer months and for water heating, making electricity the principal domestic energy source.
