Where a municipality is served by several network operators, the value is the median of their tariffs; the municipality page shows the full range. Lower is better, so the list runs cheapest first.

Which municipality in canton Obwalden has the cheapest electricity?

Alpnach, at 26.53 Rp./kWh for a typical household in the 2026 tariff year (ElCom profile H4, standard product, excl. VAT) — the lowest of any municipality in canton Obwalden.

Why do electricity prices differ between municipalities?

Each municipality is supplied by a network operator that sets its own grid fee and energy price; levies to the municipality or canton differ too. Only the federal grid surcharge is the same everywhere. ElCom publishes every operator's tariffs each year, which is what this ranking compares.
