We have a tank in the garden, and the supplier is fixed..... Ordered about a month ago then. Since then, the price has gone up by another 12 cents per liter. ... But we still paid more than double compared to last year.

It’s probably propane/butane?!?

I found it surprising that autogas (propane) has “only” increased by about 40%. Compared to the sometimes quoted increases of 150% for town gas, that’s almost a bargain.

On Saturday, I also paid 20% more for the 11kg (24 lbs) gas cylinder at my trusted gas dealer. Fortunately, I only need it for grilling 😉

Interestingly, our provider no longer offers gas to new customers. I wanted to check what they offer independently of our contract.
I should also mention that we use green gas (whatever that means, apart from the good conscience).
We will probably switch today! A price increase of over 100%…, I still need to calculate how much they raised the prices back in October. At that time, the increase was minimal.

I still have a net price guarantee until the end of March 2022. I just used a comparison calculator. Both labor and base prices have increased by over 100% each.
That’s really intense and it really scared me.
I hope things calm down a bit by the time of the contract renewal.

That’s really intense, and it definitely made me feel uneasy.

Unlikely. It’s not due to scarcity but because of the climate goals. Don’t expect gas to get cheaper, probably even more expensive...

Yes, we also have gas. In fact, there have been two price increases within just two months… one on October 1, 2021, and another on January 1, 2022… grrrr 😕
