Possibly we are talking about different things. I am not prescribing or postulating anything. This is just reality.

  Average Revenues/Sales (¢/kWh)

  End-use sector    July 2026
  Residential           18.31
  Commercial            14.53
  Industrial             9.77
  Transportation        14.97

  Total                 14.99

The reason is mostly higher consumption = lower average price.

Isn't there a time of day variable as well? That would further drive down the average for e.g, Industrial sites that run continuously.

Well that's going to be obscured by an average.

Depends on the industrial or commercial contract, but yes.

Also my state recently mandated all residents be placed on time-of-use plans of some form.
