Which municipality in canton Obwalden has the most expensive electricity?

Alpnach, at 25.99 Rp./kWh for a typical household in the 2027 tariff year (ElCom profile H4, standard product, excl. VAT) — the highest of any municipality in canton Obwalden.

Can a household choose a cheaper supplier?

Not for the grid: households are tied to the local network operator and its grid fee. The energy component is only open to large consumers (above 100'000 kWh a year), so for a household the local tariff is the price — which is why the differences between municipalities matter.
