The electricity price is attractive, it will affect some communities especially hard in the coming year, especially the canton of Aargau. For example, in Buttikon plus 158 percent; that’s much more than double the price this year.

Or the municipality of Kolliken. In 2023 this was still one of the cheapest in Switzerland. Those times are over, electricity has been increased by 150 percent in the municipality of Aargau. Kölliker’s consolation: At 37.58 centimeters per kilowatt hour, the local supplier is certainly not one of the most expensive.

Looking at the price card, there are big differences. Residents of Braunau in Thurgau pay more than 50 cents per kilowatt hour (kWh), while in Zwischbergen, near the hydroelectric power stations in Valais, the same kWh costs just under 10 cents.

This is what it looks like in your community:

LKR, the light and energy cooperative that supplies electricity to the Richigen area of ​​the Worb municipality of Bern, had to buy electricity for 2023 at the height of the price shock last year. With expensive results! In 2023, 250 affected households paid around 70 cents per kilowatt hour of electricity; this is a Swiss record! Paul Gerber, President of the Richigen Light and Energy Cooperative, is delighted today that LKR is able to buy electricity cheaper in 2024 and says: “Now we have a better moment”. In 2024, the price per kilowatt hour in Richigen BE will be just under 42 cents.
