EKZ announced a price reduction in 2025 of 13% less than 2024.
My forecast 2025 electricity price is around 150% of my 2022 bill.
Since Switzerland does not use gas or coal or oil to produce electricity then it is hard to understand why the price is so high
As Switzerland is interconnected with neighbouring markets, the Swiss market price usually sits somewhere between the German, French and Italian prices.
Also, Switzerland imports electricity at various times of the year. Another thing was that the companies also do hedging and energy trading. I think one had a particularly bad trade that increased prices.
If by “my forecast” you mean EKZ’s predicted cost from their website, I have found these to be wildly over estimated…
Even with the price reduction they announced, it feels like electricity bills are still way higher than they used to be.
Usually mid-October I get my EKZ bill for the 2nd quarter but here we are in November and no bill yet.
I have no objections if they never send it.
I never get a bill from EKZ - but my bank does. I download the bill from my EKZ account…
I get my bill online via the eBill system, I checked myEKZ account, and not yet there.
My 3rd quarter bill (July, August, September) is dated 17-10-2024…
Life is not simple when one is old and dumb.
I called EKZ and asked where is my bill.
They replied if I check my last bill I will see a note that the next bill will be a month late.
Duh!
In my defense, I never look at my bills. I get ebills that my bank automatically pays and I only check my bill if the amount is significantly different from what I eypect.
I don’t read text on my bills either 
You better check this one when it comes, they seem to have billing/counter problems and they knew that in advance.
