The sum of those percentages is 87.5%. So what's the rest, maybe import from France or Norway?
There's a joke in there about the power of hot air but I'm not confident enough in my knowledge of British politics to make it
Yes it's imports. Norway / France and Netherlands mainly.
That's an incredible amount of wind power.
I love it, I like it like my new contract they send me with new prices for electricity (44% up)
Are you sure its the actual cost of the electricity or the fact that many other costs are often bundled into your bill?
Obviously, you don't live in Germany or the EU, and it's questionable whether you've ever paid a single bill. Because the electricity bill is always separate from other bills and is a special contract.
Prices mainly go up due to things like transmission fees.
lol. well I dont live in the EU thats true. seems like you're the misinformed one. its pretty common for 'electricity usage' and 'delivery' to be separated. hence my question. dont worry if you struggle understanding your bill we can help if you want.
Remember Berlin has a latitude of 52.5°. That puts it far north of the 49th parallel border.
