Hi again,
      Can anyone tell me if the cost per kw has changed in the last 18 months? If so can you say what the costs were then and now? We have just been given a bill from our builder for electric for 18 months and its over 2 thousand three hundred euro does this sound about right? What is the standing charge and do we pay vat etc. He is a very nice man but I need to be sure before I pay.
       Thanks for any help.

Already paid for the connection thats why we thought this bill a bit over the top. Can anyone say the actual price of kw ect.

Thanks, Sunrise,

I couldn't remember the URL. I just tried it and the home page wouldn't load properly - all appeared in "cod" Greek - don't know if it's them or my system as it didn't improve even with Greek encoding. Still, I guessed at a couple of links and found the English page which is

Thanks again for the lead.

Many thanks for all your help Filippos,Sunrise and Latsida. I have printed the section off and will take it to my builder in the next few days, hope to save something?? ha! ha! probably not but worth a try.      

Sorry, the factor is about 1.732.

PS  If you click on Start then All Programs then Accessories you should find a calculator program which has a sqare root function on it, sqrt.

Warwick, knowing you as a polite gentleman, I assume "sqrt" is the abbreviation of "square root" or are you trying to attract the attention of a Tirade Launcher by calling BJ an stunted water jet?

Just checked the DEH Site and the Rate of 0.12063/kWh actually comes up under the General Tariff C21 we are under C22 so looks like you might be under the wrong rate.
I.E. general rather than residential.
Is your Villa just your residential home?, if so maybe you need to check with the Electric Company.
I would look at your Bill first, bottom left hand corner box has your Tarrif in it and then check that against the site info.
Hope this is of some use.

Thanks for that, Sunrise.  You are correct.  We are on C21 tariff, which appears as Γ21 on the bill.

I suspect, but don’t know for certain, that this is because we are still on a temporary supply.  I believe, but again don’t know for certain, that this will change to C1, Γ1, when we move to the final supply, hopefully very soon.  All issues with the tax office are resolved and our developer is currently collecting all the signatures that DEH demand.  There was a small delay in getting the supply finalised because we were registered with a tax office in northern Greece.  We either had to get all the documents cleared at that tax office, which might be difficult since everybody else involved in the process is registered in Chania, or wait until we moved and registered in Chania.  We took the latter route.

Obviously I didn’t research this thoroughly enough.  F-  must try harder.  It does mean that BJ is likely to be on the same tariff, since it is the builder’s supply he is being asked to pay, so the rate I quoted is likely to be the one applicable.

Once I have final confirmation that the C21 is being used because we are on a temporary supply I will post the information here.  It does mean that it is worth getting on a C1 tariff as quickly as possible.  A 70% premium is not very nice.
