Here in Belgium, the component related to power generation is only about one fifth of the residential power bill.

Most are (1) connection costs (what you describe), (2) taxes, (3) subsidies for solar and wind to replace gas power generation, and (4) since 2 years, subsidies for gas power generation for when there's too little solar and wind.
