The bill as we know is the official document<\/strong> that certifies our gas and electricity withdrawals from the distribution network.<\/span><\/p>

Let’s see what information is useful to understand our consumption and related costs<\/strong> that we can read from gas and electricity bills.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The electricity travels to our homes via electric cables<\/strong> to the delivery point<\/strong> (\u201cPoint Of Delivery\u201d<\/em> – POD<\/strong>) to which is associated a unique code<\/strong> that identifies our. The POD is connected to a meter that measures the electricity consumption<\/strong> of our home. Electricity is measured in kWh<\/strong> (kilowatt hours<\/em>). <\/p>

In general the costs for the use of electric energy are composed<\/strong> of a part related to the consumption<\/strong> (variable<\/em>) of the energy material, which depends therefore on how many kWh we consume, and other parts due to the costs<\/strong> (fixed and variable<\/em>) of transporting<\/strong> electricity to our homes and the costs of managing the electrical system.<\/p>
