And that half a RMB doesn't include extra fees or delivery rates vs supply rates, correct? It's the all in rate?

I'm not quite sure what you mean by "extra fees or delivery rates," but this is the total amount I pay for electricity, no additional charges.
In my state in the US, they started differentiating between a "supply" rate, as in who generated your electricity, versus a "delivery" rate, or who delivered the electricity. That way they can market the supply rates to you and charge you on delivery additionally.
That sounds a little complicated, do the two parts actually adjust dynamically?
In China, end users pay a single bundled retail electricity price that already includes the full cost of both generation and delivery. The State Grid company purchasing electricity from generators and settling with them centrally.
Electricity prices are also government-regulated, and any change must go through public notice and approval.
