In contrast, Vorarlberg was only 0.4 percent and 990 change the bottom. This emerges from the detailed statistics of the E-Control.

The energy policy framework has a direct impact on consumer decisions. A combination of weather conditions, geopolitical events and rising network fees continued to press energy prices in 2024. Against this background, Alfons Haber, another board of directors of the E-Control, advises concrete savings measures: "Do not exaggerate, use the right ventilation, public and bike instead of car-everything helps to reduce energy consumption and energy costs." The consciousness of energy is growing in the population and the current change numbers reflect this trend. Further information on exchange statistics are available on the website of the e-control
