Energy Prices

The Energy Prices data service is composed of a main database and several datasets.

The Energy Prices database covers 148 countries in the world with weekly, monthly, quarterly and yearly data for end-use prices. OECD countries data also contain details on the end-use prices taxation breakdown whenever available or applicable.

The regular frequency of update is the following:

• yearly for full database (by April);
• quarterly (March/June/September/December) for OECD countries.
• monthly for (but not limited to) transport data in selected countries.

Please refer to the availability files to check what combination of products/sectors/time/countries are included in each database.

Please note that the datasets are no longer available in IVT/B2020 format as of January 2025. A new online data platform has been made available to subscribers. As a result data are presented in a single table.

It is also noteworthy that the dataset Consumer and producer price indices, exchange rates and purchasing power parities has been discontinued in 2025.
