Sorry, but as a fellow Dutchman Im going to call this BS. Two minutes in google gave me the following result, and this is from a company that is certainly no price fighter.

€0.09 for the power and €0.12 for taxes. So that's €0.21 per KWH

BTW, the fact taht our net is underground does not warrant a high electricity price. You pay addiotnal costs for the power grid (a fixed amount).
