Jeeze, what are you doing that uses so much electricity?

I live in Germany where people won't stop whining about electricity prices, and I pay 75€/mo.

Easy to get there without doing anything abnormal, 2 EVs and a large 5 bedroom house that gets air conditioned / heated, in a location that does time of use pricing. My bill is closer to $200/mo but if I didn’t have solar & battery it’d be in the $400 range.
