Price of electricity: the most expensive and cheapest hours today Monday, July 18, 2022

Consumers will have to be vigilant this Monday, July 18. There will be times when putting on the washing machine, ironing or using the oven will be more advisable. Knowing which are the cheapest allows you to concentrate spending and save on the bill at the end of the month. The average reference for the whole day in the wholesale market will be 214.75 euros per megawatt hour, according to the operator Omie. It is 6% less than Sunday. Once again, hour by hour there will be big differences, something to take into account in the middle of a heat wave.

The wholesale market figures are reflected in the consumer's receipt. The most expensive hour will be reached between 08:00 and 09:00, when the price on the invoice will rise to 0.33271

euros per kilowatt hour (kWh), based on data from Red Eléctrica. The cheapest hour, on the other hand, will be recorded between 5:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m., when the kilowatt hour will be paid at 0.22289 euros.

This is the hourly cost of electricity for this Monday at the regulated rate (PVPC, toll 2.0 TD), according to Red Eléctrica. These figures already include the cost of the daily and intraday wholesale market, adjustment services, financing, the cost of variable marketing, tolls and charges. It may also have other concepts such as payments for capacity, surpluses or deficits from renewable auctions and costs for interruptibility services.
