  "Piped natural gas, Eurostat consumption band D2 (20-199 GJ per year, about 5556-55278 kWh per year) — a typical household connection. Band D1 (very small users) is much dearer per kWh because the fixed connection charge is spread over little gas.",
  "Headline prices include all taxes and levies; the figure without taxes is on the same card.",
  "Semi-annual source: nrg_pc_202 covers 2026-S1 and is published about four months after the half-year ends, then stays the latest figure for six months.",
  "Gas use is seasonal, so the headline change compares the same half-year one year earlier (2026-S1 vs 2025-S1), not the previous half-year.",
  "Bottled LPG has no official euro price in the Baltic statistics, so the national series here is the HICP index CP04522 — a rate of change, not what a cylinder costs. What a cylinder costs is published by the sellers themselves, and those prices are listed separately, seller by seller.",
  "Cylinder prices come from 4 named sellers' own published pricelists (LPG (SIA Latvijas propāna gāze), Intergaz SIA, Alexela, Olerex (AS Propaan)). This is what these sellers charge, listed one by one — it is not a national average and no average of them is computed.",
  "A first purchase costs the cylinder plus the gas; a refill costs the gas only. Both are published separately wherever the seller publishes both, because one number alone would be wrong for half of all buyers.",
  "Cylinder sizes are quoted as the seller quotes them, in litres or in kilograms, and each seller's own size-to-weight mapping is carried with the offer. Litres are never converted to kilograms here.",
  "Lithuania has no cylinder price here. Every Lithuanian seller found was checked and none can be read: some robots.txt files exclude this agent, one site is behind a bot check, and the rest publish no household cylinder pricelist at all. That is an absence with reasons, not a gap.",
  "Sellers who publish only the refill price, so the cost of the cylinder itself is not shown for them: Intergaz SIA, LPG (SIA Latvijas propāna gāze), Olerex (AS Propaan).",
  "New empty 50 litre cylinders are no longer sold in Latvia — that size is supplied only in exchange for an empty one you already own. It is also the size the Latvian statistical series tracks.",
  "Where one seller's price differs between cities (Daugavpils, Jūrmala, Rīga), the seller states the reason itself: the difference is the cost of delivery.",
  "Could not read this run, so the last stored prices are shown with their own older date: Intergaz SIA.",
  "Piped gas and bottled LPG are different products in different units (metered kWh vs a fixed-mass cylinder) and are never combined.",
  "Wholesale exchange prices are not included: getbaltic.com now resolves to the EEX site, where market data sits behind a commercial licence, and an exchange price is not a household bill in any case.",
  "Half-year series: 38 points per country, 2007-12-31 to 2026-06-30. Points sit on the LAST day of the half-year they describe, because that is the period the number covers.",
  "The consumption band is part of the number, so every band is published per country: a band is never shown with another country's price.",
  "History: nrg_pc_202 starts in 2007-S2, Eurostat's first half-year under the current methodology, and band D2 has meant 20 to under 200 GJ a year throughout, so every point since 2007-S2 is the same product on the same tax basis. Eurostat's earlier series (nrg_pc_202_h, to 2007) prices standard consumers at fixed levels (its D2 is 16.74 GJ a year) in GJ only; that is a different product and is not joined on.",
  "Before Estonia (2011), Latvia (2014) and Lithuania (2015) adopted the euro, the euro figures are Eurostat's conversion from the national currency at the half-year's average exchange rate (EE 7, LT 15, LV 13 points before the changeover).",
  "Since 2021-S2 the source counts energy-cost support inside the tax basis, so the price with taxes can sit below the price without taxes: LV 2022-S1, 2022-S2, 2023-S1.",
  "Eurostat publishes household gas prices only twice a year; the monthly series alongside is a price index, not a price. No official monthly or quarterly household gas price was found in the sources this site may read.",
  "Second source for EE: Statistics Estonia KE32 publishes the same band-D2 figure. 38 half-years line up, 37 of them to the last published digit, 1 differ. It is not an independent measurement — the same office compiles this number and reports it to Eurostat under Regulation (EU) 2016/1952, so agreement shows the figure was transcribed correctly, not that it is right.",
  "Where the two publications differ for EE (2016-S2), the point is published as it is on both sides and never averaged.",
  "The second source is not published as a series of its own for EE (first source has no gaps).",
  "For EE the VAT rate implied by the source's own figures differs from the statutory rate on file in: 2016-S1, 2016-S2. The statutory rate is used and the gap is published, not smoothed.",
  "Second source for LV: Central Statistical Bureau of Latvia ENC020 publishes the same band-D2 figure. 22 half-years line up, 22 of them to the last published digit, 0 differ. It is not an independent measurement — the same office compiles this number and reports it to Eurostat under Regulation (EU) 2016/1952, so agreement shows the figure was transcribed correctly, not that it is right.",
  "This second source starts at 2015-06-30, while the headline series starts at 2007-12-31. It is a check on the recent half-years, not extra history.",
  "The second source is not published as a series of its own for LV (first source has no gaps).",
  "Before 2007-S2, LV gas prices come from a Eurostat table that was discontinued: 8 half-years, 2004-06-30 to 2007-12-31, in euro per gigajoule. It prices a FIXED standard consumer (83.70 GJ a year), not the 20-199 GJ consumption band the headline series prices, so it is published as a separate line and never joined to it.",
