Oh my that is insane kw/h pricing. Happen to know what there buy back rates are?
Here I pay .07 kw/h with a buy back of .02 kw/h.

I have thought of doing time rates, but for now I turn down p2p, etc, during
peek times and kick it up at off peek. This worked well till the major push over
to encrypted connections
