This study investigates the industrial electricity pricing (IEP) profiles of 22 OECD countries to understand effect renewable energy and taxes on overall prices. Clustering analysis was performed data from year 2000 2018 observe how prices evolved. Ordinal logit regression determine possible associations between clustered groups percentage share renewables generated (REG), specifically linked wind, solar photovoltaics thermal. Other independent variables indicating economic market structures were also considered. results for both before after tax indicated three clusters, termed low, median, high clusters. IEP in Italy Germany found have highest owing taxes, while such as US, Norway, Canada, Denmark least affected by taxes. Regression show positive REG. The association non-taxed component a unit increase REG is 1.41 times, whereas price (including taxes) 56.26 which 39.9 times higher. Our that penetration has had minimal over time under consideration, but rather taxation coincides with penetration, contributing increases.
