Electricity network

Partille Energi Nät AB owns the power lines in Partille. We are responsible for the delivery of electricity to all houses, flats, companies, public facilities and other utilities in the municipality.

It’s important to deliver electricity safely and securely to you. That is why we invest, refurbish and structurally improve the electricity network to safeguard delivery of electricity every day. We want it to be good to live and work in Partille, so our electricity network tariffs are among the lowest in Sweden.

Partille Energi is replacing all electricity meters

From the autumn 2023 until the end of 2024, we will replace all electricity meters in Partille.
Our new electricity meter is the OMNIA® e-meter. It’s set up with several great features, such as a new customer interface, HAN (Home Area Network). It enables you to set up a connection to your smart home equipment. Thereby you can monitor and control your electricity use.

** Other residences, max 63A main fuse. The tariff is called “Normaltariff – max 63A” on your invoice.

Energy tax 2024

You pay energy tax for your electricity use and the tax is levied on your electricity network invoice. From 1 January 2024, the energy tax is 53,50 öre/kWh.

Explanation of the different parts of the electricity network tariffs

The electricity network fee is divided into two or three parts, depending on the type of residence.

Subscription/Abonnemang – a fixed yearly fee paid by the customers which gives them access to the electricity network. The fee depends on the size of the main fuse.

Electricity transmission – a variable fee for the delivery of electricity through the electricity network. The fee you pay is based on how much electricity you use.

Effect – a variable fee for the maximal load of the electricity network’s capacity. The fee you pay is based on the highest consumption/specific hour each month (kW).

If you live in a flat in an apartment block with at least three flats connected to a common service line and a main fuse with a maximum effect of 16A, there will be no effect charge fee on your invoice.

To sign an electricity network contract

When you move, it is important that you sign a new electricity network agreement and cancel what is available for the home you are moving from. Each home has a specific facility ID that is tied to the property. The electricity network agreement is linked to this number and cannot be moved with it. Therefore, you must terminate your electricity network agreement when you move and sign a new one for your new home. If you move within Partille, you can do everything via forms under Customer Service here on our website. If you are moving from Partille municipality, it is important that you find out who the electricity network owner is in your new home. Remember that you need to notify us 14 days before you move for everything to work as it should. You will find the contract terms that apply to electricity network delivery to private individuals under Documents and forms

The effect fee

If you have the electricity network tariff “Other dwellings (Normal tariff – max 63 A),” part of your electricity network cost consists of an effect fee. Essentially, the purpose of the effect fee is to achieve a more even load on the electricity grid throughout all hours of the day and all days of the month. This is necessary for us to continue delivering electricity in a society that is becoming increasingly electrified.

How the effect fee works

The effect fee on your invoice is based on the so-called hourly average effect, which is the highest consumption for a single hour during the month. The current price is 32.50 SEK/kW. Your monthly effect fee is calculated by taking the number of kWh you consumed at the peak hour and multiplying it by 32.50.

Power and Energy – The Basis of Your Consumption

To better understand the effect fee, you need to be familiar with two concepts:

Power: This is a measure of how quickly an appliance or a lamp consumes electricity. Generally, more powerful machines or brighter lamps have higher power. Power is measured in Watts (W). When dealing with larger quantities, it’s more practical to talk about kilowatts (kW), where “kilo” stands for a thousand. So, 1,000 W is equivalent to 1 kW.

Energy: This is a measure of how much electricity has been consumed over a certain period. The higher the total power of the appliances used during the given period, the more energy is consumed. Energy is usually measured in kilowatt-hours (kWh), where “h” stands for “hour.” Therefore, one kWh corresponds to one hour of using 1,000 Watts.

A few examples:

  • You watch the Winter Olympics for a total of 14 hours. Your 50-inch LED TV uses about 90 W. The energy consumption would then be 14 x 90 = 1,260 Wh, or 1.26 kWh.
  • You run a load of laundry. The washing machine uses about 1,000 W, and the cycle takes 2 hours. The energy consumption would then be 2 x 1,000 = 2,000 Wh, or 2 kWh.
The Effect Fee in Practice

Let’s say your energy consumption at home looks like this during the month of June: We see that the highest energy consumption in one hour was 4 kWh. This means the effect fee will be 32.50 x 4 = 130 SEK.

If we instead move to November, we can be quite certain that energy consumption has increased. Heating the house, more lighting, and the fact that we spend more time indoors during this time of year often result in higher energy usage.

The highest hourly consumption this month is 8 kWh, which means the effect fee will be 32.50 x 8 = 260 SEK. As you can see, there is much to gain by distributing your electricity usage as evenly as possible.

The Effect Fee on Your Bill and on “My Pages”

On your bill from us, you will find a summary of the total monthly consumption for the past 24 months. The consumption that forms the basis for the current month’s effect fee can be found on “My Pages.” There, you will also find information about the highest consumption in previous months.

Use of electricity and reading of the electricity meter

Information about remote reading

We usually read the meter through a signal over the electricity network (remote reading). When you get the invoice you are paying for your real electricity use, and you will avoid getting unexpected updated invoices. When you move you don’t need to read the meter yourself. The reading will reach us automatically.

Electricity network invoice

We normally invoice the electricity network fees every month. On your invoice from us, you can see overall statistics for your electricity use. On My Pages here on the web, there is more detailed information about your consumption, your contract and your invoices.

Do you suspect that someone else’s meter has been mistaken for yours?

If you feel your consumption is higher than what is reasonable, one explanation might be that your meter has been confused with a neighbour’s meter. When electricity meters are mistakenly confused for one another, there might be several reasons.

Possible reasons

  • The wrong label on both meter box and installation ID
  • Misconnections in the building.
  • Housings for electricity centrals (fuse boxes), which are removed during refurbishing, might be reinstalled incorrectly.
  • Incorrect information when moving flat, or similar.
  • If you live in an apartment block, the meter and the meter housing box are normally located in an electricity room or in a locked niche. Ask help of your house caretaker, landlord or someone with a key to the room. Together you can easily check the meter and figure out if there is something wrong.

This is a how you can check the installation:

  • Compare the information on the invoice about installation ID and meter number with the information on the meter itself.
  • Check if the meter number on the invoice corresponds with the label on the meter box.
  • Check that the flat number on your invoice corresponds with your flat number in your apartment block’s list of flats.
  • Turn off the main fuse (switch) on the meter box. Check that there is no electricity in your flat.

What is normal use of electricity for a household?

The normal consumption of household electricity in a detached house or a large flat is around 5 000 kWh/year, which is approximately divided as follows:

  • Laundry and drying, around 1 000 kWh
  • Washing up, around 350 kWh
  • Electrical appliances, around 850 kWh
  • Fridge, freezer, cool cupboard, around 1 000 kWh
  • Cooking, around 800 kWh
  • Lighting, around 1 000 kWh

In recent years people have more computers and electronic equipment, which has increased their electricity use at home. That is why it’s not uncommon for people to have a much higher level of household electricity consumption than the one above. In a detached or terraced house there is also the added energy consumption for heat and hot water. For a family, we can roughly estimate 5 000 kWh for hot water and 10 000–15 000 kWh for heating. Even here, there can be big differences. Several factors make a difference. For example the number of people living in the household, the size of the residence, the in-house temperature and if the house is well isolated.

New connection

If you build your own new home or move into a house that does not yet have electricity, you will need to order a new permanent electricity connection. The first step is to contact an authorised electrician. The authorised electrician will send in an application via foranmalan.nu. In the first instance it’s the authorised electrician who deals with the electricity network company.

Prices for new connections 2024

When installing new electricity connections we follow the price model of Energimarknadsinspektionen (the Swedish Energy Market Inspectorate). The distance is measured as a straight line between the connection and the closest point of connection in the electricity network. The extra metre fee will only be charged on metres that exceed the lower range within each zone. You can always ask for a quote if you are not sure what the terms are in your case. All prices include VAT.

    Taking down a meter

    If you want to cancel a subscription altogether and take down the meter, we ask you to contract an authorised electrician, who can carry out the pre-registration and completion registration of the work with us. This might be the case if you are planning to refurbish a house where a meter is installed, or if the house is going to be demolished.


    Excavating, building and ordering temporary electricity

    If you plan to do any excavating and digging, it’s important that you order a localization of cables (kabelanvisning) in the ground where you will be excavating. In this way you will avoid to cause power outages and cutting off cables by mistake.

    Cable and pipe localization through ledningskollen.se

    All localization of pipes and cables must be ordered at least 5 days before you begin excavating. This is easily done through ledningskollen.se. After you have placed your order, our supplier Geomatikk will identify and mark the localizations of the pipes and cables you have identified, through the account you have created.

    Ledningskollen.se is a free web service managed by Post och telestyrelsen, PTS (the Swedish Post and Telecom Authority), where many of the cable owners are affiliated.

    Keep in mind! You are always responsible for any damage caused by the excavating.
