Energy prices in April were 1.2 per cent lower than in the same month a year earlier despite the discontinuation of the brake on energy prices as of January 2024, the introduction of a higher carbon price also from January 2024 and the end of the temporary value-added tax reduction from 19 per cent to 7 per cent for gas and district heating in April.
