In some places, pellet prices fall below 300 euros per ton.\u00a0That hasn't happened for two years.\u00a0On average, wood pellets in Germany cost just over 300 euros per ton at the end of November.\u00a0The massive price drop is actually atypical for pellet prices in the middle of the heating season.\u00a0But it could go even further down.<\/span><\/p>\n

At the end of November, pellet prices fell below the 300 euro mark in some federal states.\u00a0These are the lowest pellet prices in 2 years.\u00a0There is still no sign of an end to the extraordinary price fall.\u00a0The opposite is the case: In November, the price decline for wood pellets accelerated again, contrary to all forecasts.\u00a0Things fell sharply again, especially in the second half of November.<\/p>\n

On average, wood pellets in Germany cost around 305 euros per ton in the last week of November, according to experts from the trade portal heizpellet24.de.\u00a0That's 35 euros less than four weeks ago.\u00a0Compared to the last price peak at the beginning of July, when pellet prices briefly broke through the 400 euro mark, prices are currently 95 euros per ton lower.<\/p>\n

On the holzpellets.net platform, the average price is slightly higher at around 318 euros per ton.\u00a0There are no prices here under 300 euros.\u00a0But so far the trend is the same: prices continue to fall.\u00a0However: At holzpellets.net you don't see much further downside potential, among other things due to rising prices for sawdust.<\/p>\n

Pellet prices fall to two-year low<\/strong><\/p>\n

Pellet prices have now significantly undercut the previous annual low from the end of April and cost as much as they did in December 2021. Back then, customers in Germany were able to buy their wood pellets at similarly low prices as they do now.\u00a0In some federal states, prices have fallen well below the 300 euro mark, at least at heizpellets24.de.\u00a0A few weeks ago, pellet experts did not believe that the previous annual low could even be reached.<\/p>\n

However, these doubts have vanished into thin air and things continue to decline.\u00a0\u201cThe heating season has begun and the price of pellets continues to fall.\u00a0This is a good signal for consumers.\u00a0Heating with pellets means security of supply with a domestic energy source, which is also confirmed by the high production volume in the third quarter of 2023,\u201d says Martin Bentele, Managing Director of the German Pellet Institute (DEPI), explaining the price slide.<\/p>\n

Another reason could be that pellet prices are still relatively high in a long-term comparison.\u00a0According to the DEPI, the annual average prices for wood pellets will have hovered around 240 euros per ton by 2021.\u00a0The DEPI gave the average monthly price for November at around 350 euros per tonne, more than 100 euros higher.\u00a0Even with an appropriate inflation surcharge, an average price of permanently under 300 euros seems to be realistic.<\/p>\n

Falling wood prices and very large supply<\/strong><\/p>\n

There is therefore no sign of an end to the unusual price decline.\u00a0An important reason for the persistently low pellet prices is likely to be the sharp drop in the price of wood and wood by-products.\u00a0The fall in prices observed there continues to put pressure on the prices for heating pellets and is likely to continue to keep them down.\u00a0In addition, the domestic production of wood pellets, which grew significantly last year, apparently continues to exceed domestic demand (which has also grown), say pellet experts. This also puts a lot of pressure on pellet prices and prevents an increase or slows it down significantly.Customers expect prices to continue to fall<\/p>\n

\u201cMany customers are simply too well stocked to become active on the market again despite the attractive prices.\u00a0The numerous new owners of pellet heating systems who have since put the devices into operation after the boom in applications for funding in August 2022 have also completed their initial stockpiling,\u201d the experts at Heizpellets24 explain the price decline.\u00a0Last but not least, many customers stocked up on pellets early on, which further reduced the quantities currently purchased.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn view of the intact downward trend, another customer group is speculating on even cheaper pellet prices and could be successful,\u201d say pellet experts.\u00a0In some federal states, such as Bavaria, Baden-W\u00fcrttemberg, Hesse and Schleswig-Holstein, wood pellets cost less than 300 euros per ton and in many other countries only slightly more.\u00a0Wood pellets are by far the most expensive at heizpellts24 in Bremen and Lower Saxony at 320 to 332 euros per ton.<\/p>\n

At holzpellets.net the three most expensive federal states are Bremen, Lower Saxony and North Rhine-Westphalia with prices between 355 and 360 euros per ton.\u00a0The cheapest three prices can be found at holzpellets.net in Hamburg, Schleswig-Holstein and Bavaria, each at just over 308 euros per ton.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
