Household electricity price in Albania
The latest official average available for households in Albania was 0.118 EUR/kWh in July–December 2025. It covers homes using 2,500-4,999 kWh a year and includes energy, network charges, taxes and levies. That is 50% below the unweighted country median for the same period; the median is an unweighted comparison of countries, not the EU average.
Reference period: July–December 2025 · Source: Eurostat electricity price statistics · Source snapshot refreshed: August 30, 2026 · Last checked: August 30, 2026. This is an official half-year benchmark, not a live supplier tariff.
Example bill arithmetic
What this benchmark means at three annual usage levels
These examples simply multiply 0.118 EUR/kWh by annual consumption. They use the published national benchmark in euro and are not supplier quotes.
Actual bills can differ because tariffs may have standing charges, time bands, discounts, regulated components and local-currency effects that do not scale as one flat rate.

From price level to household decisions
What this electricity price means for flexible homes
The published country average describes the overall price level in Albania. It does not reveal the cheapest hour, a home's exact tariff or the value of a particular device. Those decisions need the daily curve and the home's own equipment, limits and priorities.
Solar PV
At this benchmark, 1,000 kWh of grid imports represents about €118. That is context, not a solar-savings forecast: export credit, self-consumption and the actual tariff still decide the result.
Run a roof-level solar forecastHome battery
A national average cannot prove that charging low and discharging high will pay. The usable spread must cover round-trip losses, cycle wear and tariff rules while preserving the reserve the household needs.
Read the battery-arbitrage guideEV charging
An EV is a large load that can often move in time. The useful comparison is the car's required energy across the available charging window—not an assumption that every off-peak or dynamic tariff is automatically cheaper.
Coordinate solar, battery and EV chargingHeat pump
Heating can sometimes shift part of its demand toward solar or lower-priced hours, but comfort, weather, efficiency and manufacturer-supported controls come before chasing the lowest interval.
Read the heat-pump guideNext step: open the daily price curve before making a timing decision. This benchmark is not a quote, tariff recommendation or promise of savings.
