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.
