Why does Australia have such high prices? Don’t they just burn cheap domestic coal?

But it doesn’t take into account so many variables. The spending power of your home currency for example, skews this data massively.

Why price for people is higher? I’ve expected Europe be more socialist

Wow electricity prices are pretty cheap in my country then, 6.44 cents per kWh for households in Finland on average over the past 12 months. Although that doesn’t include the entire cost so it might be like 1 cent higher than that

Cost of electricity for me at least is a fixed price + how much used kwh.
For a small household, your fixed price is way higher than how much you actually used.
So this graph is somewhat inaccurate comparison.

How the fuck Brazil energy with all the hydropower is more expensive than South Korea that has basically no natural resources?

If the European union stop shooting in his own foot for a week we could have the cheapest.

The UK is a excellent example of what happens when you let neoliberal capitalism dictate the countries energy strategy. Shit in the rivers and some of the most expensive and electricity in the developed world.

I don’t think they are factoring in other fees on a residential power bill. Account fee, delivery fee, infrastructure fee etc. These fees dramatically increase cost to households. Households should not be subsidizing industry,

Canada rate varies by province. Quebec has exceptionally cheap electricity

Now it makes sense why they are building those AI data centers in India

The industrial rate for China cannot possibly be right. The number is closer to $.25 per kilowatt USD.

20c in US. That’s the probably the average for the lowest tier. In California this easily goes up to 50c/KW. Perhaps it’s the same unit of measure for the others. If not US should be way higher. And I am hearing the massive growth in data centers will push these prices up.

These numbers aren’t right. The Canada price looks credible for the wholesale electricity charge (nuclear and hydro being cheap baseload, with expensive wind and gas for peaking) but doesn’t include substantial distribution/delivery, debt, and other regulatory charges. My advice here is that apples-to-apples comparative economics is incredibly complicated.

The actual cost in the US varies dramatically by state, which are often the size of countries in and of themselves. Hawaii is $0.43 while North Dakota is $0.11

The data simply isn‘t correct in this one. The source you quoted seems to be unreliable there are several grave errors in their data

America should have the cheapest electricity, in my opinion.

This looks too high for Spain, it is around 14cts over here

The idea of charging industry and domestic fundamentally different prices confuses me in the same way that the US giving Nestle priority over homes for water confuses me.

I‘m in Germany and I paid 0.28€ not 0.38€ (0.44$) last year… This nonesense.

I’m glad to see that you made the *area* (not the diameter) of the semi-circle proportional to the price.

Spain… paying double if you are household than industry

Highly depends on the location in Australia. I pay less than half the rate shown here.

Only if the kWh prices could tell the whole story. Delivery fees and efficiency of appliances are just as important as the unit prices.
