The annual amount (€4,020) was nearly identical to the sum recorded a decade prior (€4,050 in 2007).

The figures were released by Statec, the national statistics bureau, on 5 January 2021.

Statec said that the amount spent on home energy varied greatly depending on how households were heated. The figure was €1,129 for households that used electricity for heating, €1,693 for households that used natural gas and €2,448 for those that used home heating fuel.

About 30% of households’ total energy bill was spent on electricity consumption, according to Statec.

Luxembourg households which did not pay for vehicle fuel (about 37% of the total) had an average annual energy budget of €1,600.
