In Estonia's Nord Pool pricing region, the average electricity price on Monday is approximately 134 euros per megawatt-hour, but significant price increases are expected throughout the day.

During evening hours, the electricity price rises to around 385 euros per megawatt-hour, meaning that at the day's peak, the price is more than two and a half times higher than the daily average.

High electricity prices during evening peak demand hours are a typical phenomenon, as this is when consumption is at its highest and production capacity operates at full capacity. Where possible, consumers should consider shifting energy-intensive activities to the cheapest hours of the day.
