Is there a regulated or capped energy price in Cyprus?
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 Cyprus
Regulated price
EAC Supply's household tariffs are regulated and approved by CERA. The bill includes an automatic fuel adjustment that follows EAC's actual fuel costs, plus charges for network use, public service obligations and the RES fund.
The market
By law you can switch electricity supplier free of charge, and CERA lists nine active suppliers, including EAC Supply. EAC still supplies about 91% of electricity (September 2025). There is no natural gas network for households.

Can I go back to the regulated price?

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.
