For the month of December, yes. It highly affects those who heat up their houses with radiators using only electricity. The price in December per kWh was about $0,4. As of February its below $0,1 per kWh. I lowered the temperature at home which is 200m2 to 17 degrees and was able to keep my bill at $500. We are getting refunds by government subsidies now however to cover for the higher costs.
