Study suggests potential for lower household electricity bills through time-varying pricing
Earlier-generation briefing · Verification upgrade pending
What happened
A new study indicates that household electricity bills could potentially decrease if time-varying pricing models were promoted.
Why it matters
Adopting time-varying prices could better align consumer costs with the actual, fluctuating expenses of producing electricity, which currently vary significantly by time and location.
Context
Most consumers do not currently pay electricity rates that reflect the real-time or location-based variations in production costs.
