Energy prices in the Czech Republic continue to fall, with suppliers offering increasingly competitive rates to new and existing customers. The latest supplier to announce a significant price reduction is Centropol, which now allows customers to fix their gas prices for 18 months at an average rate of CZK 1,910 per MWh, excluding VAT. This is almost a quarter lower than the government’s cap of CZK 2,500 per MWh and is set to come into effect on April 13th.
This new gas product, called FIXNĚ na 1,5 roku, follows a similar offer by Centropol for electricity, announced two weeks ago and offers a 16% reduction on the government’s cap. With this move, Centropol further cements its position as a leading affordable energy supplier in the Czech Republic.
Other suppliers have also been vying for customers in recent weeks by offering cheaper rates for gas and electricity. The most notable of these is E.ON, which announced last week that it is offering a one-year fixed rate for electricity at CZK 3,725 per MWh, which is over CZK 1,000 lower than the government cap. For gas, E.ON is offering rates of less than CZK 1,300 per MWh for households that use gas for heating.
The trend towards lower energy prices in the Czech Republic is good news for consumers, who can expect to save significant money on their energy bills in the coming months. It also reflects the broader trend towards lower energy prices across Europe, as countries and suppliers increasingly shift towards renewable energy sources and away from fossil fuels.
Despite these positive developments, consumers must continue to compare prices and switch suppliers regularly to ensure they always get the best deal on their energy bills. Knowing which offer represents the best value is essential with so many suppliers and tariffs. can be difficult. Still, by doing some research and staying informed, consumers can ensure they always pay the lowest possible price for their energy.
