    * the article uses industrial electricity prices of 55 euro cents per kwh because it was written in 2022 at peak of energy crisis, but even then , it used the worst data point for residential prices, not industrial electricity prices

    **curent average industrial electricity prices are 18.75 euro-cents /kwh , so the monthly electricity costs for an industrial robot in Germany are something like 15-30 euro** [https://de.statista.com/statistik/daten/studie/252029/umfrage/industriestrompreise-inkl-stromsteuer-in-deutschland/](https://de.statista.com/statistik/daten/studie/252029/umfrage/industriestrompreise-inkl-stromsteuer-in-deutschland/)
