About electricity prices in Slovakia

Slovakia generates most of its electricity from the nuclear plants at Bohunice and Mochovce, with hydropower, gas-fired units, solar and a small amount of coal making up the rest. Household prices are regulated by the Regulatory Office for Network Industries, ÚRSO, and the government has at times capped them, though customers can choose among suppliers.

Bills are issued in euro and combine the energy price with distribution charges that differ between the three regional network areas, plus system levies and taxes. Gas is the dominant heating fuel, with district heating serving apartment blocks, so electricity use per home is moderate; two-rate tariffs provide cheaper hours for homes with electric heating or heat pumps, and rooftop solar has become more common.
