Calculator for the tax credit for electricity

You can gain a tax credit for electricity only for January–April 2023.

Use the calculator to estimate the amount of tax credit for electricity for your claim for adjustment.

The tax credit has been available for electricity used in permanent homes between 1 January and 30 April 2023. The credit is 60% of the part of the electricity expenses exceeding €2,000. The maximum amount of expenses qualifying for the credit is €6,000.

You can claim a tax credit for electric power and for the basic charge for electric power. No credit is granted for electricity transmission, so do not include the basic charge for electricity transmission or any other electricity transmission charges in the calculation.

Note:
In 2023, the credit for household expenses and the tax credit for electricity have a shared annual liability threshold of €100 per person. This means that if you do not claim any other credit for household expenses, the €100 threshold is subtracted from the tax credit for electricity.

If the tax credit is greater than the amount of tax you need to pay, the Tax Administration automatically transfers the tax credit for electricity to your spouse’s tax assessment.
