Heating in Germany remains significantly more expensive than it was before the energy crisis: According to an evaluation by the metering service provider Techem, heating costs in 2025 were around 45 percent above the 2021 level.

This is reported by Focus Panorama, citing Techem data. The metering service analyzes consumption data from a large number of German households and is considered one of the central data sources for heating cost trends in the country.

Where heating in Germany is particularly expensive

The report takes a look at where heating in Germany hits the wallet hardest. Alongside climate and the building stock, regional energy prices also play a role – and these can diverge sharply depending on the region and provider.

Which heating systems come out cheaper

The Focus report also assesses which heating systems come out cheapest at current prices. For homeowners and tenants, it provides pointers on which technology can pay off in the long term – and which is likely to remain a cost driver.

What the 45 percent means for you

Anyone who was still heating comparatively cheaply in 2021 now pays almost half as much more on average. How strongly this translates in individual cases depends on personal consumption, the energy source, and the tariff. What's clear: based on Techem's data, there is no end in sight to the price increase for 2025.
