10x more seems a bit excessive and I really hope this is not going to be the case.
ANWB has Dutch electricity prices per day/week/month/year for the past years, excluding taxes.
This is 3 years ago (August 2018):

I'm pretty sure our prices are very similar to German prices.

Natural gas is now 10-15 times more expensive than it used to be.
Sorry, this 17 days old post is outdated. Natural gas is now 20 times more expensive than it used to be.



Of course, for consumers the difference is less, because energy was always highly taxed and there's now even a temporary tax reduction. But still, the everage new energy contract now costs €4000 per year more than a year ago. And this data is already old, because gas prices went up further.
