Households receive support for 80 percent of consumed kilowatt hours (kWh) during November and December 2022.
The compensation is related to the electricity prices in the respective electricity area during the two months.
For households in electricity areas 1 and 2, slightly simplified northern Sweden, the compensation will be 90 öre per kWh.
For households in electricity area 3, 126 öre per kWh applies and in electricity area 4 it will be 129 öre.
At most, a household can receive compensation for 18,000 kilowatt hours.
In total, this is about five million households. The person who gets the money is the person who had the electricity contract on December 31 last year.
Around ten billion kroner must be paid out. They are taken out of the pile of bottleneck fees that households and companies in mainly southern Sweden have paid in recent years when they needed to buy electricity from, for example, electricity from northern Sweden.
