In my city (Russian Federation, Siberia, city Tomsk):
2.40 rub (by current rate of USD) $0.042 for 1 kWh at daily time
1.67 rub = $0.029 for 1 kWh at night
Including all taxes an delivery cost.
This tariff for private persons, not an organizations. But, a private person has no limit how many kW use, but has a limit of peak load (for my house it is equal to 15kWh, but I sometimes I'm getting 30-35kW for heating in winter, without penalty)
In Russia, unlike USA Texas, you have no problems with cooling. You can mine a cryptocurrency and get a heat for your house!
Moreover, many people in Siberia have private houses and use electricy to just a heating water that circulated in tubes for heating a house. You can try to make a business idea how to replace an electric heating boiler to cryptomining equipment and... this solution is really profitable for both sides.
Germany, at the local municipal provider:
republican energy: 0.2418€/kWh + 7.85€ base per month incl. tax
green energy: 0.2484€/kWh + 7.85€ base per month incl. tax
Sitting in the same boat, i'm a bit jealous of the other people here.
upto 200Kw $0.0153
from 201 to 650 $0.039
from 651 to 1000 $0.07
over 1000 $0.077
So on average usage I'm paying around $0.05
e.g. invading other countries with democracy
13.110p (GBP) per kWH + £95.52/yr standing charge.
UK about £0.09/Kwh
All I know is, our fees in Portugal, seem to be much higher.
I could be wrong though. But 1 server (200watts PSU), 2 PC's for 8h a day, vinyl plotter, routers etc, we pay close to 50 EUR a month in our company and we don't even play games or use much CPU other than José sometimes doing his rendering
As per: https://lojaluz.com/preco-kwh-edp#tarifa-eletricidade
0,15-0,17 + VAT, plus daily charge of around 21 cents.
Edit: Officially, https://www.edp.pt/media/1330961/tarifarios-eletricidade.pdf , around 21 cents a day for the power + 16 cents per kWh. Expensive for a country like ours.
wtf, who are you with?
kWh: 0,28€ in Germany
10€ a month for "service"
38,5% power from renewable energy
UK 14.92p per kWh standing charge 25.48p per day
I thought the same, but you were quicker lol
Up to 2000 kWh per month at $0.05 per kWh or $100 a month in Texas. After 2000, the rate is around $0.075 per kWh
0-402 kWh: $0.16/kWh
403-1608 kWh: $0.25kWh
1609+ kWh: $0.31kWh
Around 0.13€ per kWh in Austria, Germany around 0.16€ per kWh and Netherlands around 0.18€ per kWh, on a fixed price. Base costs are highest in Germany directly followed by Netherlands. All on industrial energy sourcing contracts.
Pretty darn expensive. 0.24$/kWh in the Czech Republic. I envy you, people from Texas.
Some years ago they deregulated the market. You can see power prices in all major areas using this website http://powertochoose.org.
NL industry prices are not 0.18 per kWh, it's consumer prices
you should be around ~0.08 to 0.10 euro per kWh for industrial
Wow that is insanely cheap. No wonder our exporters complain about high power prices.
Your government is problematic though. Russia has been making all sorts of statements when it comes to cryptocurrencies. It's like they want to breed uncertainty.

How the russian government has an impact on mining? The main thing is electricity and cooling conditions. A mining is not prohibited here. There are no laws in Russia relative to cryptocurrencies.
Your government has been wishy-washy when it comes to bitcoin and crypto currencies. This article explains some of the issues. It seems that they are creating uncertainty on purpose so that if any bitcoin business grows too big they can come in and take it over on the grounds that it is illegal. OTOH bitcoin businesses connected to the ruling elite will be allowed to grow.
You mixed cryptomining and bitcoin payments. Let's imagine that all cryptocurrencies is totally prohibited in Russia. What's to stop you from mining?
Around 0.06 EUR/kWh, but there are additional costs on top of that, which bring it to around twice as much.
1.25 EGP per KW, I’m using around 150 to 200KW per month
Not familiar at all with Russian laws on crypto, but it is kindof interesting to note that crypto payments are the same as crypto transactions, and mining is the processing of transactions. So if there is a law that forbids you from accepting or processing crypto transactions, that may technically cover mining too.
They've said in the past that only authorized companies should do cryptocurrency mining. They want people to stop doing them in their homes and offices on a small-medium scale. That means that they want to extract their cut from crypto miners in the form of license fees, taxes or whatever. Maybe they don't want people to abuse subsidized (?) electricity connections? Venezuela for instance cracked down on mining for that reason.
There was also a story that a company connected to Putin was making a big investment in bitcoin mining. Another story about Russia developing its own ASICs.
So you see it is all over the place. Both positive and negative stories have come out of your country. Foreign investors don't know what to think. I guess you locals have a better idea of how to navigate this environment.
Another nuance is that all the countries of the former USSR are absolutely similar. Even thinking, acting and all the rest.
In the CIS: I want and do, in a reasonable amount so that there are no problems. This principle works.Could not make money, it means your problems. Could earn it all means cool.
In the last time in the CIS, there are a lot of additional millionaires.
In my environment there are a lot of very messy people who have earned on CS:GO roulettes, cryptocurrencies, minecraft servers, sales of dedicated servers.
