25 March 2026, 12:57 Spain: PPI Records Sharpest Drop Since 2024.
Producer prices in Spain fell by 7% year-on-year in February 2026, marking the steepest decline since March 2024, following a revised 2.8% decrease in January. The drop was mainly driven by a sharp 22.3% fall in energy prices, reflecting lower costs in the production, transmission and distribution of electricity and, to a lesser extent, in gas production and the pipeline distribution of gaseous fuels. Excluding energy, producer prices rose by 0.8%, slightly easing from 0.9% in January. Prices for intermediate goods edged up just 0.1%, due to declines in the production of precious and other non-ferrous metals. Meanwhile, non-durable consumer goods prices increased by 1% as prices for the manufacture of vegetable and animal oils and fats declined less sharply than in February of the previous year. On a monthly basis, the producer price index fell by 3.1%.
