All-clear for consumers: heating season is much cheaper for customers than last year. Gas customers had to spend 38 percent less and heating oil customers 18 percent less.

Last winter was the 13th mildest in a row and the third warmest since 1881. Compared to the average costs of the last ten years, the burden on households in the 2023/2024 heating season will be almost a quarter (24 percent) higher. The situation on the procurement markets has eased significantly, and tariffs for new customers are continuing to fall.
