Hm, that seems unusually high, really wonder where these stats come from. Is every eurostat statistic distorted like that? Here's a chart of energy prices on a Prague energy exchange, currently it's about 30 EUR/MWh = 0.032 USD/kWh. I pay a bit more than that (incl. distribution) with a good tarif (low cost broker), but even conservative people I know who don't renegotiate energy prices get about 0.06 USD/kWh incl. all distribution fees. That said, electric distribution network in our country is probably underinvested. Is the premium you're paying in US based on distribution network cost? http://www.tzb-info.cz/ceny-paliv-a-energii http://www.tzb-info.cz/ceny-paliv-a-energii
