# Get Energy-Charts electricity futures prices

Automatically get Energy-Charts electricity futures prices on energy-charts.info. Read the Energy-Charts (Fraunhofer ISE) electricity futures chart for Germany, France, Austria or Switzerland: the daily settlement price, in EUR/MWh, of each base-load contract for a delivery year, quarter, month or week (for example "2027", "Q1 2027", "01.2027"), on each trading day. This is what the market pays today for power delivered later, so it shows the expected cost ahead. A contract has a null price on the days it was not traded, before it opened or after its delivery started. Pass from and to (trading dates) to get only a range of trading days, as the chart's date range selector does. Without them, every trading day since 2021 is returned, which is a large answer. A range where the site has no trading days gives empty lists.
