Danish electricity prices to top seven kroner per kilowatt-hour tonight

On Monday, September 14, 2026, electricity prices in Denmark are expected to reach their highest level in almost two years, exceeding seven kroner per kilowatt-hour during the evening peak. The energy company OK attributes the spike to high gas prices and low wind and solar generation. The most expensive period is between 19:00 and 20:00, with high prices also from 18:00 to 19:00 and 20:00 to 21:00. Consumers are advised to reduce usage and delay EV charging. Prices are expected to drop to about 1.5 kroner per kilowatt-hour overnight.
