Finland: a lot of anxiety about high electricity prices early on. Luckily there is no direct gas heating in Finland for obvious reasons - only source of gas was Russia. Who would set themselves up to be blackmailed like that?
It turned out to not be such a huge deal. Check electricity price from the app before doing something that uses a lot of power (the biggest is if you have a sauna, we don't). Have shorter showers, maybe turn down the thermostat one degree. We got used to also checking the price when deciding to do laundry or making food in the oven. Often things can be moved a few days. More about principles than actual costs. The large amounts of installed wind power made it so that every now and then power was very cheap. Now that they got the massive nuclear plant online, it's always quite cheap that nobody's looking at the price anymore.
