6. Electricity distribution If the usage location is within the Helen electricity network area, the electricity distribution is billed on the same invoice. Electricity tax is billed with electricity distribution, and the tax consists of excise tax and strategic stockpile fee. These are shown as separate lines in the bill itemisation. The electricity excise tax and strategic stockpile fee are charged for all electricity distributed to customers through the distribution network.
7. Electrical energy Breakdown of electric energy based on actual electricity usage. The breakdown shows on separate lines the electricity product, period during which the consumption has been metered, actual electricity usage (kWh), unit price, and total of each line in euros. Electricity usage is invoiced on a single line for the entire billing period if there are no price changes during the period. For example, meter replacement also causes separate billing lines before and after the replacement.
