Me too. EU average is just under 29c/kWh (non-contract price) [0] In the UK I got 27.5c/kWh (+ 58c/day fixed charge) on an 18-month contract a month ago [0] https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/statistics-explained/index.php... | ||||||||

That is expensive. If it makes you feel better, U.S. utilities' published kWh rates don't include a whole bunch of other things that make bills much higher than you'd imagine. For example, I used 280 kWh last month for my apartment, at a nominal rate of either 11 or 13 c/kWh (the rate changed from 13 to 11 partway through the month as it got cooler). But after all the "sales true ups" and "affordability charges" and "resource adjustments" and "fuel cost charges" and "interim rate adjustments", not to mention the city fees and sales tax, the final bill divided by my usage gave me an effective rate of 23 c/kWh. | ||||||||

My thought was that the EU average can't be that high, but apparently Finland is just the outlier here. | ||||||||

I think in Quebec they've been paying me to use power. | ||||||||
