This 21% tax, which is featured again on the gas bill, is likewise applied to biomass fuels such as pellets, briquettes and wood, which are environmentally friendly substitutes for natural gas used as heating systems. Furthermore, heat supplies remain in the same range, according to their renewable or fossil origin.
The different tariffs according to your supply
The deregulated market offers 4 different types of tariffs depending on gas consumption:

What factors influence the gas bill?
There are four main factors in your gas bill that influence the final price:
1. Fixed term: this is the part of the gas bill that must always be paid for having access to the supply point, regardless of your consumption. The amount depends on the gas tariff you have contracted.
2. Variable term: corresponds to what you consume.
3. Meter hire: the distributor is paid for the rental of the metering equipment.
4. Taxes: VAT (21% for Mainland Spain and the Balearic Islands) and the Special Tax on Hydrocarbons, which is levied at €0.00234 per kWh.
