E.ON reduces energy prices by more than 25 %
As of 1 July, E.ON Benelux will reduce its prices for gas and electricity by 25.5 % for private customers. Gas prices will be reduced by 34 % and power prices will be reduced by 10 %. On a yearly basis, this adjustment comes to a reduction of 300 euros for an average household. E.ON will inform its private customers personally starting 25 April. The monthly advance bills will be adjusted automatically from July onwards.
The price reduction is a result of the steep decline in prices for oil worldwide. The price of natural gas is linked to the oil price. Since electricity is also generated with natural gas, the oil price influences the price of electricity. With this price reduction, E.ON lives up to its promise to follow the market closely, in order to be able to let its customers benefit from being a customer of Europe’s biggest energy company.
