Maybe turn on the AC in my man cave.
Is there really anything you can do for an hour?
I wonder if it is so they can try to get people to use more energy after that hour?
reply
It may not make a big difference, but you can vacuum, cook, take an electric shower, charge an EV.
If they indeed have more energy than there is demand for at the usual rate, it doesn't have to be a loss leader.

I guess that is true, but cant the city use it for something useful?
Instead of making the citizens use it?
reply
It's a private company, it's not the city making the citizens use it.
If the city can put it to good use, I'm sure it can get it from them somehow, whether as a customer on the same terms as any other, or through an OTC deal.
