Industrial Price Index. 2021 Baseline

July 2026. Provisional data

Main results

  • The annual variation of the Industrial Price Index increased by 2.2 points in July to 9.2%.
  • The monthly rate of industrial prices was 3.0%.

The annual rate of the general Industrial Price Index (IPRI) was 9.2% in July, 2.2 points higher than in June.

By the economic use of the goods, among the industrial sectors that had a notably positive effect on the evolution of the annual rate of the general IPRI were:

  • Energy, which presented a variation of 20.8%, 6.5 points above that of June, due to the fact that prices in Electric power generation, transmission and distribution, increased more than they did in July of last year.

Also worth noting, although in the opposite direction, was the fall in the prices of Gas production; pipeline distribution of gaseous fuels through mains, which increased in the same month last year.

Meanwhile, standing out among the industrial sectors that had a negative influence on the evolution of the rate was:

  • Non-durable consumer goods, whose 0.5% variation, eight tenths below that of the previous month, was due to the fall in Manufacture of vegetable and animal oils and fats prices, which increased in the same month in 2025.

The annual variation rate of the general index excluding Energy decreased by one tenth, to 3.5%, which was nearly 5.7 points below that of the general IPRI.
