Good morning,
I just received a steep price increase from my energy provider enercity, raising the cost to 15 cents per kWh starting in August. That’s really tough, and I think prices will rise even further.
It’s a strange feeling to be thrown back so quickly into an energy supply situation where you have to figure out how to keep the house warm. It seems to me that the government has given up on the goal of enabling everyone to adequately cover at least their basic needs.
Goodbye central supply structures; now the winner is whoever has solar panels and a heat pump in their new build, while the others are left out.
Welcome back, coal heating 😕
Frustrated regards,

the two comparison portalsWell. At the moment, energy suppliers have better uses for their money than paying commission fees to the broker portals. It’s best to inquire directly with local suppliers or the major ones (yellow, blue, red...) directly. Usually, there are still new tariffs available, significantly cheaper than those on the portals. (Four weeks ago: directly from the electricity supplier 34 cents/kWh versus about 45 cents on the portal.)X

Well. At the moment, utility providers prefer to invest their money elsewhere rather than paying commission fees to comparison portals. The best approach is to contact the local utilities directly or the major providers (yellow, blue, red...) themselves. Usually, there are still new tariffs available that are significantly cheaper than those on the portals. (Four weeks ago: directly from the electricity provider 34 cents/kWh vs. around 45 cents on the portal.)My municipal utility currently only offers new contracts to households located within the city limits. 25.26 cents/kWh. With Vericheck24, it’s easily over 40 cents for my postal code.

Feel free to search for "mydealz mediamarkt strom" online. I’m not sure if sharing the link is allowed.

I regularly check the comparison portals (27,000 kWh per year).
Paid in 2021: about 130 euros per month.

The recent posts have been more about both gas and electricity prices.
On the linked Mydealz page, it is often mentioned that in the Media Markt promotion, the price per kWh depends on the amount of consumption.
Why is that? When signing the contract, you have to provide the previous year’s consumption, but what does this indicate about future usage?
I have signed such a contract with MM (E.ON), effective from December 1st, and I declared my previous year’s consumption from my current apartment as 1200 kWh.
Around the turn of the year, we will move into our newly built house, where I want to transfer the new electricity contract.
Thanks to a heat pump, we will then consume many times more electricity.
Can E.ON terminate the contract or retrospectively adjust the price per kWh if they find out that my consumption no longer matches the previous year’s consumption at all?
If not, then anyone could misreport their previous year’s consumption at contract signing to get the cheapest price...
