Basic providers lowering prices? "Nice try, but we can do better."

Berlin/Krefeld, February 5, 2026 - While today's headlines announce that basic providers are lowering their working prices, many gamers and tech enthusiasts are only breathing a brief sigh of relief. Despite the reduction to just under 38 cents per kilowatt hour, electricity bills remain a real challenge for households with high-end setups, streaming stations, or multiple consoles. meinGAMING Strom goes one crucial step further and shows what real relief for heavy users looks like.

The math often doesn't add up for gamers
The current move by basic providers is a step in the right direction, but for the target group of "power users," it often falls short. Many standard rates are based on an average consumption of around 2,200 kWh. However, anyone who regularly plays games, works from home, or operates a smart home easily exceeds this mark. This is where the meinGAMING Strom tariff model comes in: a model that rewards high consumption rather than penalizing it.

High performance at a low price: 27.39 cents instead of basic service
While customers on the basic supply often still pay over 37 cents per kWh, the working price at meinGAMING Strom is just 27.39 cents. That's a difference of over 10 cents per kilowatt hour.

"It's like upgrading your hardware: you look at the performance per euro," explains the meinGAMING team. "If you consume a lot, you need a low working price. We offer exactly that - basically the 'cheat code' for your electricity bill."

The hard facts about meinGAMING Strom at a glance:
* Low working price: Only 27.39 cents per kWh (particularly attractive from 2,500 kWh/year).
* Fair basic fee: EUR15.20 per month for full transparency.
* Loot bonus: With a 24-month contract term, there is an additional EUR50 bonus.
* 100% green electricity: Sustainable energy for the next level.
