BELGRADE – The cheapest will be wood heating this winter if there is a possibility to buy at lower prices, for example 4,650 dinars per cubic meter, and the most expensive will be central heating with electricity, gas and oil.
This is demonstrated by the analysis of the Serbian Energy Agency for the heating season 2020/2021. according to October prices.
After heating with firewood, heating will be the one that those who heat with natural gas, coal, TA stove will pay the least, as long as it is lit only at night when electricity is cheaper, then in pellets, more expensive firewood and finally if Heated with electricity with TA heating bake for two hours a day.
However, the highest energy costs for heating will be borne by households that use electricity directly in heating units and boilers for district heating, propane butane gas and heating oil.
To heat an insulated average living space of 60 square meters to 20 degrees Census for 16 hours a day throughout the apartment, 180 days in the heating season, an energy of about 9,000 kWh is required.
AERS states that 150 kWh / m2 is the estimated average heating consumption in Serbia. Lower energy costs for heating, for the indicated conditions, this heating season will have households heating with wood in areas of Serbia where you can buy at lower prices, for example 4,650 dinars per cubic meter and if they have stoves newer whose efficiency is higher. , eg 65 percent.
In that case, they need 38,300 dinars during the season to buy fuel. Households that use more expensive firewood will have significantly higher costs, around 62,000 dinars, priced at 6,350 dinars per cubic meter, and will have less efficient stoves.
Based on the average price of natural gas in Serbia, 42,000 dinars should be reserved for heating throughout the winter season, with the additional advantage that its use is the convenience it provides. Coal heating costs are slightly higher, from 48,000 to 52,000 dinars.
Households using thermal storage furnaces will cost 50,000 dinars, but only if cheaper nighttime electricity is used exclusively.
For citizens who heat with pellets, the annual costs are around 59,000 dinars, if burned in more efficient furnaces built for this fuel.
Recharging the TA furnace using more expensive electricity for just two hours a day increases costs by 44 percent, bringing them to about 72,000 dinars, which is more expensive than most alternative fuels.
However, those who use electricity directly in heating bodies and boilers for district heating, butane propane gas and heating oil will have the highest costs. For the purchase of power or energy, which is needed to heat an average apartment throughout the season, they must reserve 133,000 dinars for electricity, 122,000 dinars for propane butane gas and 85,000 dinars for heating oil.
Compared to the previous year, unit prices for heating oil are 29 percent lower and propane butane gas is four percent lower. Other prices have not changed significantly.
These amounts include only the costs of supplying energy, that is, fuel, and do not include investment costs (for example, purchase of furnaces and installation of central heating installations) and costs of periodic inspections and maintenance.
AERS advises citizens to seek expert help when choosing the heating method.
If you can, insulate your living space and replace windows, and if you buy new stoves and furnaces, choose the ones that are as energy efficient as possible, AERS says.
