As far as I know; if the electricity bill is not in your name then it is not going to help. You need to have a letter from the municipality on the basis of your lease agreement or the owner of the flat / electricity bill has to go with you to give an NOC to have the address updated in your CPR.

A copy of the bill in itself is not an issue to get. You can even send an email to EWA requesting a copy - you would need to give them the CPR number (of the connection owner) and the electricity account number and they will send you a copy.
