Il primo screenshot è per Berlino, il secondo è in Finlandia. Entrambi sono di Vattenfall e per gli stessi termini: contratto fisso 24 mesi, senza CO2.
I prezzi in Finlandia solo per KWH sono 4x più economici. Inoltre, anche il prezzo di base mensile è la metà.
Perché l’elettricità in Germania è molto più costosa?

Hint: your neighbor country on the right
Because of the mix of energy generation. Take a look here: [https://www.energy-charts.info/charts/power/chart.htm?l=de&c=FI&interval=month](https://www.energy-charts.info/charts/power/chart.htm?l=de&c=FI&interval=month)
They have an ass load of wind generation, far more hydro than Germany (compared to demand) and a solid block of nuclear to round it out. They just need to burn way less expensive dinosaur plants. Additionally, their grid, population and industry is smaller, so the costs and complexity of that are also reduced.
So to summarize: Good location factors for wind and water, paid of nuclear plants and generally a different country/industry/grid situation.
Edit: What you can also see, quite nicely, is that they use hydro to regulate. So the other renewables fluctuate, nuclear just dumps a straight line into the grid and everything is matched through trade and water. That is a very sweet situation to be in, as Germany needs to burn expensive gas to do the same and has basically no further water power potential.
One thing to note, the Finnish electricity price you refer to only includes the electricity itself, not transferring the electricity. Energy transfer is an additional 1.71c to 7.04c per kWh and a base price of 4.05€ to 43.75€ per month, depending on where you live.
Also worth noting is that 95%+ of Finland’s electricity production is fossil free.
It’s amazing, isn’t it? I drive a PHEV and charge it via a wall box at home in South Karelia. Public charging spots I used in the past raised their prices from 20 to 25 cent an hour, making it unattractive to charge the battery elsewhere, seeing as gas is far less expensive currently than it used to be.
I recently visited my home town in NRW and obviously mt battery was empty. I considered charging it while I had some errands to run and the public charging spots wanted 67 cent per kwh. Yeah, no, the battery stayed empty and I drove on gasoline for my entire stay. Only charged it again when I was home.
Same price, but different taxation
Killing all its nuclear plants purely for ideological reasons, it turns out to be a bad idea (Italy did the same and also paying among the highest fees in EU).
