Obviously it all adds up. That comes down to infrastructure planning which is a whole can of worms in the US it seems! We pay a lot more for our electricity than you do (so do most European countries) because it seems our infrastructure investment is better. Cheap power comes at a cost long term.
I'm sure infrastructure planning does play a significant role in electricity costs, as does method of power production. I live in a major hydropower region and so there's plentiful and cheap electricity. We pay just over 2 cents/kw-hr in my county, go a little over a hundred miles to the west to Seattle and they pay about 5 times as much, even with the majority of their power coming from their own hydro projects.Obviously it all adds up.
