Electricity price in Estonia: today, tomorrow and 7-day forecast
Friday is settled at 19.74 ct on average, with 27–28 ct at 09:00 and 17:00. Saturday to Monday stay dear for the season, 12–14 ct on average with 16–19 ct peaks, because Baltic wind fades to 12–20 km/h and gas plants set the price. From Tuesday a gale (32 km/h, gusts 50) cuts the average to 7–10 ct and nights to 3–5.

Why: Estlink is full into Estonia (Finland 1.72 ct on Thursday against 19.29 here), so with gas at 98 €/MWh the Baltic gas plants set the peaks: about 21 ct for a combined-cycle plant, 31 for a peaker. Olkiluoto 3 is out until 7 November and from Monday Sweden's export to Finland is cut to 400 MW. Latvia's Plavinas hydro plant (900 MW) is out Saturday and Sunday for inspection.
Practical: Until Monday, boiler, washing and car charging at 00–05 (8–10 ct); avoid 08–10 and 16–20 (16–20 ct). From Tuesday night, 00–06 falls to 3–5 ct, so leave flexible loads for Tuesday–Thursday.
Main risk: The chart carries +1 ct Saturday, +1 to +2 Sunday and +2.5 to +3.5 Monday in daytime and evening hours for the calm gas-priced days and the Swedish import cut. Monday wind under 10 km/h brings Thursday-like 30 ct mornings; a slower Tuesday front keeps that morning near 15 ct.

Frequently asked questions
What is the electricity spot price in Estonia?
The spot price is the wholesale exchange price for electricity in the selected bidding zone and delivery interval. A spot-price contract follows those intervals; a fixed-price contract follows your supplier's agreed tariff. The chart separates published day-ahead prices from Wattcast forecasts.
How much does 1 kWh of electricity cost?
Use the chart to see the price for the hour or 15-minute interval when you consume electricity. 10 EUR/MWh equals 1 cent/kWh. Multiply the price per kWh by your consumption in kWh to estimate the energy cost. Your bill also depends on taxes, network fees and your supplier's charges.
Why does the electricity price change, and can it be negative?
Demand, wind and solar generation, fuel costs, power plant availability and cross-border connections affect prices. Prices can fall below zero when supply is abundant relative to demand. A negative exchange price does not necessarily mean a negative final bill: network fees, taxes and contract terms still apply.
When is electricity cheapest?
Usually at night between about 01:00 and 05:00 and, on windy or sunny days, around midday. The cheapest-windows tool on this page lists the exact hours for today, tomorrow and the next 48 hours.
When are tomorrow's prices published?
Nord Pool publishes the day-ahead prices every day at about 13:45 EET (12:45 CET). Wattcast shows them within 15 minutes; the forecast covers the days after that.
How accurate is the forecast?
The forecast is statistical: a machine-learning model trained on price history and weather forecasts. The Accuracy page shows the mean absolute error per horizon, both from backtests and from the forecasts actually published. The p10–p90 band is designed to contain the settled price about 80% of the time.
Do the prices include VAT and network fees?
No. The exchange price is shown without VAT (a toggle adds it), network fees, excise or the supplier's margin. Your bill adds those on top of the exchange price.
