121.1 öre/kWh with VAT is what each kilowatt-hour costs a Luleå flat when retail energy is at the Statistics Sweden (SCB) variable-contract average for SE1 in August 2026, 70.5 öre/kWh before VAT, and that price contains no grid element at all. Luleå Energi Elnät AB, which owns the Luleå grid area in SE1 according to Svenska kraftnät’s Nätområden.se, reports a transfer fee (överföringsavgift, the per-kWh grid charge) of zero öre for 16 A flats to the Energy Markets Inspectorate. The whole grid cost, SEK 1,814 a year with VAT, is fixed, ranking the grid 3 of 136 for flats. Your variable price is therefore just energy plus energy tax, which in Norrbotten county is reduced to 26.4 öre/kWh, plus VAT. At 2,000 kWh a year the bill is roughly SEK 353 a month.

What a Luleå flat pays per kWh
| Part of the price | Incl. VAT |
|---|---|
| Energy, SCB variable average SE1 | 88.1 öre/kWh |
| Transfer fee, Luleå Energi Elnät | 0.0 öre/kWh |

In most Swedish cities the grid takes a slice of every kilowatt-hour. In Luleå that line is zero, and energy makes up 72.8 % of the variable price. Spot price swings therefore show up more directly on the bill here than where the grid charges per kWh. Ei counts 16,286 connection points in Luleå Energi Elnät’s flat case.
