Industrial Price Index. 2021 Baseline

June 2024. Provisional data

Main results

  • The annual variation of the Industrial Price Index increased by one point in June to -3.5%.
  • The monthly rate of industrial producer prices was 1.9%.

The annual rate of the overall Industrial Price Index (IPRI) was -3.5% in June, one point higher than in May.

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 rose by 2.0 points to -12.7%, due to an increase in the prices of electricity production, transmission and distribution that was higher than in June 2023.

Also noteworthy, although in the opposite direction, is the decrease in oil refinery prices, which increased over the same month last year.

  • Intermediate goods, with an annual rate of -2.1%, 1.0 point higher than in May. This behaviour was a result of prices in the Manufacture of basic chemicals, nitrogen compounds, fertilisers, plastics and synthetic rubber in primary forms decreasing less than in June of the previous year, and an increase in prices in the Manufacture of animal feedstuffs, compared with a decrease in the same month of 2023.

The annual variation rate of the general index excluding energy increased four tenths of a percentage point to 0.8% and was 4.3 points higher than that of the general IPRI.
