There's not really much functional difference from my point of view between my heater and oven and fridge and lights not working because there is no electricity at my place due to a rolling blackout, and them not working because I had to turn them all off because the price has spiked so high I can't afford to use them.
If enough people are reacting to the spiking price, then it will peak at a much lower level, one where you'd feel okay running perhaps half of your things.
