This is only partly related to the choice of heat source-whether it is electricity, gas, oil, or pellets. The price is driven mainly by another key factor: the efficiency of a given system in converting energy into heat. Two houses may pay a similar \u201cfuel price,\u201d yet still end up with completely different bills. Over time, it may turn out that one system has higher losses, while another operates more efficiently.<\/p><p>We compare the most popular heating sources using one common denominator to find out what 1 kWh of real, usable heat in a home actually costs. And to go beyond calculations alone, we will also show an example annual bill for typical energy consumption-so it can be easily related to your own place of residence.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c5e6ab2 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"c5e6ab2\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b49e30e elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"b49e30e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_82_2 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"#\" data-href=\"https:\/\/voltmax.lu\/de\/heating-costs-in-luxembourg-in-2026\/#How_much_do_you_pay_for_the_useful_heat_that_actually_reaches_your_home\" >How much do you pay for the useful heat that actually reaches your home?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"#\" data-href=\"https:\/\/voltmax.lu\/de\/heating-costs-in-luxembourg-in-2026\/#Energy_and_fuel_prices_in_Luxembourg_in_2026_-_reference_data_for_calculations\" >Energy and fuel prices in Luxembourg in 2026 -

You will often hear that electricity is expensive or that gas is cheap. Such claims usually rely on the energy price on the meter, not on what it costs to produce heat that actually warms the home. So what is useful heat? It is the portion of energy that, after passing through the heating appliance, truly reaches the installation, raising the temperature in living spaces. The rest is lost as waste or escapes during combustion and the device\u2019s own operation. That is why comparing the prices of gas, electricity, or heating oil on their own does not make much sense. After all, different heating systems have different efficiencies. A gas boiler delivers about 92% of the fuel\u2019s energy to the home, while an oil boiler and a pellet boiler deliver about 88%. Electric resistance heating comes closest to 100%. This means, roughly, that 1 kWh of electricity is about 1 kWh of heat.<\/p><p>A heat pump works differently-it does not generate heat from electricity, but transfers it. In practice, this means that two people using different heat sources may pay similar amounts for the energy itself, yet their bills will still differ. One buys 1 kWh and gets almost 1 kWh of heat, while the other, using a heat pump, can obtain several kWh of heat from 1 kWh of electricity.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-62e1005 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"62e1005\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"338\" src=\"https:\/\/voltmax.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/heading-cost-luxembourg-2-1024x540.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-18725\" alt=\"heading cost luxembourg (2)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/voltmax.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/heading-cost-luxembourg-2-1024x540.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/voltmax.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/heading-cost-luxembourg-2-300x158.jpg 300w, https:\/\/voltmax.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/heading-cost-luxembourg-2-768x405.jpg 768w, https:\/\/voltmax.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/heading-cost-luxembourg-2-1536x810.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/voltmax.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/heading-cost-luxembourg-2-2048x1080.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/voltmax.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/heading-cost-luxembourg-2-18x9.jpg 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" title=\"\">\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-66a6007 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"66a6007\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">What does SCOP mean, and why does a heat pump \u201cmultiply\u201d energy?\n<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8366746 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"8366746\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>SCOP (Seasonal Coefficient of Performance) indicates the average amount of heat a heat pump can deliver over the entire heating season from 1 kWh of electrical energy. This means that with a SCOP of around 3.2, the pump supplies 3.2 kWh of heat to our home from 1 kWh of electricity. That is why it is said that the device \u201cmultiplies\u201d energy. It does not produce all of the heat from electricity-it draws energy from the surroundings (air, ground, water) and transfers it to the heating system.<\/p><p>It is worth remembering that SCOP is not a fixed value. A lot depends on the installation in the home and on the temperature at which the heating system operates. A heat pump performs best where heating can run at lower temperatures, e.g., underfloor heating or larger radiators. It then operates much more efficiently. The higher the supply temperature, the harder it is to achieve a high SCOP, which directly affects heating costs.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a915e56 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"a915e56\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Energy_and_fuel_prices_in_Luxembourg_in_2026_-_reference_data_for_calculations\"><\/span>Energy and fuel prices in Luxembourg in 2026 - reference data for calculations<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-248354a elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"248354a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Price comparisons should be fair, so reference data from specific sources must be collected. These include: operator tariffs, official price lists, and statistics. This is extremely important because the goal is not to guess the amount of a bill, but to build a clear benchmark for calculations. We show real market prices and official starting points-not promises that every household will pay exactly the same. The final result is also influenced by: consumption, tariff, fixed charges, and system efficiency.<\/p><p>For electricity, we use a working assumption of around \u20ac0.258\/kWh for a household in 2026-an \u201caverage\u201d value based on communications about support mechanisms in Luxembourg (for a typical household) and placed in the broader context of Eurostat data for 2025S1. For gas, we use the SUDgaz Classic tariff effective from 01.01.2026 as a reference point. On the tariff page, we find the gas price, the network component, fixed charges, and taxes. All of these components must be included so as not to underestimate heating costs. To convert values from m\u00b3 to kWh, we also use the calorific value provided by SUDenergie: 10.2 kWh\/m\u00b3.<\/p><p>For heating oil, we rely on official prices published in Luxembourg (for example, on 10.02.2026 it was \u20ac0.867\/l TVAC) and use a practical conversion factor of 10 kWh per 1 litre. We show pellets in two variants, because this strongly changes the result. As a reference point for bulk pellets, we use an example market price for loose\/bulk pellets from \u20ac373.22\/t (update: 01.12.2025)-it is worth remembering that this is not an official price, but a supplier\u2019s offer, and the final rate usually depends on order size and delivery conditions. For retail bags, the price at Hornbach in Luxembourg is \u20ac6.79 \/ 15 kg. For calculations, we assume a typical energy value for pellets of 4.8 kWh\/kg-this is an indicative value commonly used in such comparisons.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-dff2c6f elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"dff2c6f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_much_does_1_kWh_of_heat_in_a_home_cost_in_2026\"><\/span>How much does 1 kWh of heat in a home cost in 2026?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2e8c783 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2e8c783\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The fairest way to compare different heating sources is to convert them to the cost of 1 kWh of heat that actually reaches the home.

We assume that a home needs about 15,000 kWh of heat per year, which is of course a major simplification. This consumption includes both space heating and hot water. The indicative costs are as follows: a heat pump (SCOP 3.2) is around \u20ac1,209\/year, bulk pellets about \u20ac1,325\/year, heating oil \u20ac1,478\/year, condensing gas \u20ac1,506\/year, pellets in bags \u20ac1,607\/year, and electric resistance heating about \u20ac3,870\/year. This is only an example that shows the scale of the differences. It is worth remembering, however, that the final result always depends on the specific home, the operating temperature of the system, the tariff, and actual energy consumption.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bfebe8e elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"bfebe8e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_should_you_choose_to_heat_a_home_in_Luxembourg\"><\/span>What should you choose to heat a home in Luxembourg?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-58e8e20 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"58e8e20\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>There are two heat pump placements that practically guarantee that noise will start to bother us when using the device.\u00a0<\/p><p>The first is placing the unit under a bedroom window.

These are the elements that determine whether a given solution will truly be cost-effective, convenient for everyday use, and reliable over time.<\/p><p>In many homes, a heat pump performs very well-especially when the system can operate at a lower temperature, as with underfloor heating or larger radiators. Under such conditions, the pump achieves better seasonal efficiency (SCOP) and heating costs fall. In addition, many homeowners combine it with photovoltaics, which helps control bills even better over the course of the year.<\/p><p>Gas and oil still make sense where a simple \u201clike-for-like\u201d upgrade is important, without major changes to the installation. This is a common choice in older homes that require a higher supply temperature and where replacing the entire heating system would be expensive or technically difficult. In that case, however, it is not only the fuel price that matters, but also fixed charges and future cost volatility.<\/p><p>Pellets, in turn, are a sensible option for people who have space to store fuel and accept a bit more logistics related to deliveries and boiler operation. Pellets usually deliver the best cost results when purchased in bulk and in larger quantities, rather than in retail bags.<\/p><p>In practice, the most important question is not \u201cwhat is the best?\u201d, but \u201cwhat makes sense in my home and for how I use it?\u201d.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-56f182d elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"56f182d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Heating_costs_for_your_home_-_compare_them_with_Voltmax\"><\/span>Heating costs for your home - compare them with Voltmax<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5da5db9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"5da5db9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>General cost comparisons are a good starting point, but the final decision should be made after carrying out specific calculations. That is exactly why at Voltmax we prepare a comparison of heating scenarios tailored to your home-so you can see not only the fuel price, but above all the real cost of heating in practice.<\/p><p>We start our work by conducting an interview about the building-we collect information such as floor area, insulation, type of installation, supply temperature, and previous bills. We perform an initial calculation of heat demand and calculate the costs for different options. We compare gas vs. a heat pump, pellets vs. a heat pump, or a heat pump combined with photovoltaics. In our calculations we include what truly affects the result: equipment efficiency, the heat pump\u2019s SCOP, fixed charges (e.g., for gas), tariffs, and the way the fuel is purchased (e.g., bulk pellets vs. bags). With such calculations, you gain information on the estimated cost per 1 kWh of heat and an indicative annual bill prepared for your real home, not for an example building. This is especially important because the same system can produce completely different results in two similar homes-for example due to differences in insulation or the operating temperature of the installation.<\/p><p>We also help with the next step, namely selecting the equipment and configuring the system. One solution makes sense with underfloor heating and a low supply temperature, while another makes sense with an older radiator-based installation where the modernisation is meant to be as straightforward as possible. If you plan to combine heating with photovoltaics, we take that into account in the comparison and show how it may affect annual costs.<\/p><p>Voltmax also supports you with formalities and available funding options. Thanks to this, you gain knowledge based on current figures and rules. This enables a faster and easier decision on which solution will be more cost-effective-and, above all, convenient in your home.<\/p><p>Do you live in Luxembourg and want to optimise the heating costs of your home?
