ACER Retail Energy Markets Dashboard Sweden (2025)

Underlying data (CSV, 4,843 data rows, all EU/EEA member states, NRA-reported to ACER) behind ACER’s public Retail Energy Markets Dashboard. Covers three areas — energy consumption, market structure, and energy transition — for electricity and gas, 2024–2025. This page extracts the Sweden-relevant rows only (173 of 4,843); the dataset itself is EU-wide and mostly outside this wiki’s scope.

File date: 2026-07-24 (per filename; published above uses it). Scope: All EU/EEA countries; three dashboard pages (Energy consumption, Market structure, Energy transition); 17 metrics; years 2024 and 2025 (the “2024” and “2025” columns often hold NRA data one year older — e.g. Sweden’s 2024 customer counts, consumption and heat pump counts are 2023 data, its 2025 values 2024 data)

Key findings — Sweden

Energy transition (electricity):

• Smart meter rollout: 100%, household and non-household, both 2024 and 2025 (NRA-reported) — the first ACER-sourced confirmation in this wiki of full Swedish smart-meter coverage
• Heat pump households: 35.8% (1.70M) in 2024 → 36.4% (1.72M) in 2025 (heat pump counts for 2023 and 2024 respectively, per NRA comments); non-household ~3.1% (28,000), flat year over year
• Solar PV households: 5.6% (264,779) in 2024 → 6.0% (283,696) in 2025; non-household 3.2% (28,240) → 3.4% (30,883) (installation counts as a share of customers; the NRA assumes household installations are under 20 kW)

Market structure (electricity):

• 132 total suppliers in 2025 (133 in 2024); 64 serve households and 43 non-households in 2025 — these sum to 107, not 132, and the dataset does not explain the difference
• Market concentration (HHI): 865 (2024) → 852 (2025) (the NRA reports the same figure for household and non-household, as it cannot distinguish the two)
• Household switching rate: 9.5% (2024) → 9.2% (2025), by metering point; non-household 8.9% (2025)
• Household customers: 4,749,543 (2024) → 4,736,314 (2025); non-household: 890,840 → 910,161
• Average household consumption: 6,737 kWh/year (2024) → 7,326 kWh/year (2025), +8.7% — ACER-calculated from NRA total consumption and customer counts, which the NRA comments identify as 2023 data (for the 2024 value) and 2024 data (for the 2025 value). The dataset does not explain the jump (colder winter, continued electrification, or a reporting-methodology change are all plausible; not distinguishable from this source alone)

Data gap in the source itself: Sweden’s row for electricity contract type distribution (the metric that would show the market-based dynamic-price / spot-ToU / fixed-price split, i.e. how many Swedish households are actually on a price-signal-exposed contract vs. fixed) is entirely blank for both household and non-household segments, 2025. The metric was left blank in the NRA-reported data (Ei is the Swedish NRA); no explanation is given. This is the one metric in the dataset most directly relevant to flexibility readiness, and it’s exactly the one Sweden left empty — Swedish Household Demand Response — Consumer Adoption and Barriers already has better Swedish-sourced figures on this (timprisavtal penetration, effective price-signal reach) via Ramboll/AFRY data, so the gap doesn’t lose the wiki anything, but it means this dataset can’t be used to cross-check those figures against an independent EU source.

Relevance to existing wiki topics

• Digitalization and Smart Grid — 100% smart meter rollout citation added, confirming what was previously assumed but not explicitly ACER-sourced
• Swedish Household Demand Response — Consumer Adoption and Barriers — heat pump and solar PV household penetration figures added to the “2024 snapshot” section; contract-type-distribution gap noted
• Retail market-structure figures (suppliers, HHI, switching rate, customer counts, consumption) kept here only — no existing wiki page is specifically about Swedish retail electricity market competition, and these numbers are tangential to grid flexibility rather than central to it

Data gaps

• What explains the 8.7% single-year jump in average household electricity consumption (2024→2025) — no source yet distinguishes weather, electrification, or methodology effects
