Rankings

Definition

Harmonised index of consumer prices for energy (Eurostat special aggregate NRG: electricity, gas, heat and other household fuels, and fuels and lubricants for personal transport), annual rate of change: the percentage change from the same month a year earlier. Monthly, comparable across EU countries (Eurostat).

Eurostat publishes the HICP under COICOP 2018 from the data for January 2026 and recalculated the category series back to 1997 on that basis, so figures for earlier years can differ from those first published under ECOICOP, by a lot for divisions 08 to 13. The headline rate for all items is hicp_annual_rate. Eurostat marks some back-calculated months as estimates. Eurostat marks values before 2018 for several countries as following a different definition, and January 2017 and 2018 as series breaks for some. The latest month for euro area countries is often a flash estimate, marked as estimated and revised the following month.
