Day-ahead market price in the SE3 zone
Wholesale price of the bidding zone, in EUR/MWh — not a household tariff.
SE3 · Nord Pool
the cheapest third of the hours the most expensive third
Åland has no bidding zone of its own: it belongs to the SE3 zone of the Nord Pool day-ahead market, and its price is that zone's price. EUR/kWh is obtained only by dividing by 1000.
