🏛️ Is there a regulated or capped energy price in Slovenia?

The short answer

In some countries the state or the regulator sets or caps the price households pay. In others, prices are free and you compare offers.

📜 The rules in Slovenia

Regulated price

There is currently no government price cap for households. Temporary caps applied to electricity until 28 February 2025 and to gas until 30 April 2024. Prices are set by suppliers; compare offers in the official comparator.

The market

The electricity market has been fully open since July 2007: every household can choose its supplier. Gas from the grid is also bought from a supplier of your choice. The network part of the bill stays the same whoever supplies you.

❓ Questions

Who sets the price?

See the explanation for Slovenia on this page.

Can I go back to the regulated price?

That depends on national rules. Check the official source on this page.

Why is my bill higher than the cap?

A cap may apply to the unit price or a typical bill, not your total. Taxes and your use also count.
