Electricity Rates & Grid Prices

Grid Prices

Wholesale electricity prices in US dollars per MWh (divide by 10 for cents per kWh) of a grid's hubs and load zones by hour, day or month: the real-time average, lowest and highest price and the day-ahead price. Wholesale prices are not what homes pay; they can be negative and can spike to the market caps.
