I live in the Mid cities of DFW now and my light bills in a rented apt, Reliant energy averages like $50

I think Europeans (and all living in Europe, ditto America) are more conscientious consumer of electricity and energy in general. Cost most times is not the determining factor, but the need to use resources in a more (environmentally) sustainable manner.

I pay 50 Euros monthly for my electricity bill, but at the end of the year, when the bill for the actual consumed electricity is sent by the electricity company, either pay some more money or get something refunded and my monthly payments for the next year adjusted accordingly.

Besides, nobody wants to pay more to these gigantic over-bloated energy monopolies. In Germany it is not out of place for people to light candle and turn out the lights - after all it's more romantic
