The cost of running an air conditioning system in Spain is dependent on the price of electricity, which as of July 2022, stands above €200 per MWh. According to the Spanish government, a renowned rate comparer, the cost of operating an air conditioning unit is approximately €0.45 per hour during peak times. Peak times are generally on weekdays between 10 am to 2 pm and 6 pm to 10 pm.
It’s worth noting that the cost of running an air conditioning unit has seen a slight increase from 2021 when it cost €0.33 cents per hour. However, it’s crucial to remember that these costs can be influenced by factors such as the efficiency of your air conditioner, the size of the room, and how the unit is used.
To keep your running costs low, we recommend regular maintenance services to ensure that your air conditioning system operates at its highest efficiency, and using your air conditioning more during off-peak times when electricity rates are lower.
