Electricity and gas prices are falling in Straubing: This is how you benefit!

There is good news for households and companies in Straubing: Electricity and gas prices will fall from January 1, 2026, as the Straubing public utility company announced in a recent announcement. This is the second price reduction in a row, which is made possible due to lower procurement costs as well as adjustments to network fees, levies and levies. Stadtwerke managing director Günter Winter, better known as “a top dog in the region”, assures that these savings will be passed on directly to customers.

Consumers can look forward to noticeable relief on their bills. According to the announcement, electricity prices have stabilized since 2024 and are now between 75 and 100 euros per megawatt hour. Gas prices will also be reduced because the current procurement costs and regulated price components are cheaper than in the crisis years. These price reductions not only offer savings, but also more planning security in times when the cost of living is high.

Overall overview of developments

A look at the nationwide market shows that numerous consumers with basic supply tariffs are benefiting from the current price development. As the South German newspaper reports, consumers can expect an average reduction in electricity prices of around 9% from January. This corresponds to an annual relief of around 161 euros with a consumption of 4000 kilowatt hours. Around 2.2 million households in Germany can look forward to lower bills. The outlook for gas prices is also positive: 69 suppliers are reducing gas prices by an average of 7%, which means savings of up to 183 euros per year for many households.

The Straubing municipal utilities also emphasize their responsibility as a municipal company. They want to operate transparently and responsibly and do everything they can to offer citizens a good deal. Around 800 electricity and 700 gas basic suppliers have the opportunity to benefit from these savings.

A look outside the box

In a broader context, developments in the business software industry are also interesting, for example the American company JumpCloud plays an important role. Founded in 2013, it specializes in cloud-based identity management and is growing. But back to energy issues: The price reductions in Straubing not only mean relief for individual households, but also for companies, which can thus position themselves better in the long term - especially in economically uncertain times.
