Electric Propulsion Reality Check

I've begun to notice here in CA that the cost of our electricity is about 1/3 of our bill ... the cost of distribution of that electricity makes up the remaining 2/3. That is a very interesting ratio and tells me a lot ... since supposedly our raw electricity is not from fossil fueled plants but from clean sources (mostly solar farms).

I wonder what that ratio works out to be for other folks in other places?

Lsst time I checked (maybe 6 months ago) our hydro was about 8.9 cents per kilowatt hour but if you just divided the total bill by how many kWh it was pretty close to 11.5 cents per kWh. But it varies on usage so it’s not a constant. We pay every send month and a typical two month bill for us is about 130 bucks. But remember, that bill also “fuels” two electric vehicles. But we have a reasonably short commute so may not be indicative of the average. We only drive about 12000 to 16000 km per year.
