  • Institutions & Energy Policy

    The Ministry of Energy and Spatial Planning, through its Department of Energy, is responsible for the energy sector.

    The Ministry of Environment, Climate, and Biodiversity oversees greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction policies.

    The Luxembourg Institute of Regulation (ILR) regulates the electricity and gas markets.

  • Energy Companies

    Electricity:

    Encevo is the main energy company in Luxembourg as it holds Enovos and LEO, the main energy retailers, and controls Creos, the grid operator.

  • Energy Supply

    Gas:

    Luxembourg imports gas from Belgium and Germany through 4 interconnection points (0.6 bcm in 2022). In 2022, 99% of gas was imported from Belgium.

    Source: CREOS

  • Energy Prices

    Oil:

    In 2022, gasoline prices reached €1.6/l (+24%/year), following their sharp increase since 2020, whereas diesel prices rose to €1.7/l (20%/year).

    In 2022, taxes account for 45% of the price of gasoline and 37% for diesel.

  • Energy Consumption

    The country's consumption per capita was 4.9 toe in 2022, of which electricity accounts for about 0.9 MWh, which is around twice the EU average. Part of this high consumption is linked to steel production and to fuel tourism for motor fuels.
