The View From Your Electric Bill: 16 cents/kWh in Norway

I couldn’t make heads or tails of this charactristically complicated Scandinavian bill, but our Norwegian correspondent reports that the bottom line is he’s paying a stinging 16 cents per kilowatt hour for his power. Ouch!

We’ve been able to hang on for 22 years in one of the craziest media landscapes in the world. We’ve seen different media outlets in Venezuela (and abroad) closing shop, something we’re looking to avoid at all costs. Your collaboration goes a long way in helping us weather the storm.
