I found it interesting because $0.68/kWh is roughly what EV charging has cost at charging stations here in Norway for the past few years.
It fluctuates a bit though not much, and varies from network to network, but currently[1] the average is around $0.5/kWh if you exclude Tesla.
Now, at home I pay about $0.1-0.2/kWh these days and less during summer.

- fragmede 2y agoFor those of us not in your area in Norway, where does your electricity come from in the summer that it's that cheap?
- Ekaros 2y agoMassive amounts of hydro. I am not sure about exact rates, but my guess is that purely for electricity it is somewhere in 2-4 eurocent range.
- magicalhippo 2y agoAbout 90% of our energy production is hydro, and in addition our weather is such that few places are above 25C/80F during summer so it's not common to have or use AC. Hence not a lot of energy usage during summer compared with winter, as most heat their homes using electricity.
