This is one of the better prices on the local market though.
If you're not careful, you'll pay a lot more.
I'm actually a shareholder in my cooperative electricity producer

Some 60% of the electricity price here is VAT (state tax), gov't imposed taxes, transport, ...
Only 40% goes toward the actual electricity production.
