Here is the ‘all-in’ cost of electricity at my home in Florida. ‘All-in’ cost includes the taxes and fees.

Jan 2021 11.8 cents per kilowatt hour
Jan 2022 13.6 cents per kilowatt hour
Sep 2022 14.7 cents per kilowatt hour

What has been missing in the many news reports regarding European electrical costs is a comparison like above for a typical homeowner’s electrical bills in the various countries in Europe.

In Europe they were already at 30 to 40 cents, even before the liberation* of Ukraine began, thanks to Greta. Now they’re expecting it to rise to $1.00. The numbers they’re looking at are next to impossible for Americans to imagine, much less pay, but that is what you get if you shut down your own sources and rely on others...and then think you can ‘punish’ your suppliers.

*I only use that term to tweak the Neocons here

Here is some info on German residential electrical prices—

Germany is one of the most expensive countries worldwide for electricity supply. In 2018, German customers were charged 0.33 U.S. dollars per kilowatt-hour. Although production is cheap, additional taxes and fees increase the final cost. The renewable surcharge is one of such additional fees hiking up end costs. In 2019, this surcharge made up 21 percent of the final composition of power prices for German households. This levy is to support Germany’s renewables expansion, such as wind, solar, biomass and hydropower installations.

We were fortunate to get a three-year electricity contract a few months after Biden got into office. The rate, everything included, is 8.7 cents a KWH.

We have that into next year, when I will need to pony up for what everyone else is paying.

I knew energy would skyrocket the longer Biden was in office, so I got what I could.
