Electricity became cheaper in 2025 for both residential and commercial consumers, according to newly released data from Slovenia’s Ministry of Environment, Climate and Energy. The statistics show a noticeable decline in retail electricity prices compared to the previous year.
Households with average electricity consumption paid just over 195 euros/MWh in 2025. This represented a drop of around 4% compared to the average price recorded in 2024. The decline was even more pronounced for non-household consumers. Businesses and other institutional users saw electricity prices fall by roughly 13% year-on-year, with the average cost dropping to slightly below 181 euros/MWh.
Despite the overall reduction in the final bill for households, the component reflecting the cost of energy itself actually increased. The supply price rose by about 7%, reaching 111 euros/MWh before VAT, and accounted for nearly 57% of the total electricity bill. Network fees represented the second-largest portion of household electricity costs, averaging slightly above 42 euros/MWh in 2025—almost one-third lower than the level recorded a year earlier. Excise duties represented roughly 0.8%, while value-added tax (VAT) contributed around 18% of the final price.
Commercial electricity users also experienced notable changes in cost structure. The supply price for an average non-household consumer fell to 116.7 euros/MWh excluding VAT, reflecting a 13% decrease compared to the previous year. Network fees dropped by the same proportion, averaging 20.7 euros/MWh.
For businesses, the cost of electricity supply made up the largest share of the final bill at nearly 79%, while network charges accounted for around 14%. Additional energy-related levies averaged 9.5 euros/MWh in 2025, representing a 14% decline compared with the previous year.
At the same time, excise duties for non-household electricity consumption rose slightly, amounting to 1.3 euros/MWh, about 2% higher than the level recorded in 2024.
