But dynamic pricing would save energy companies money, as we could shift our energy consumption to when it costs less. That allows the energy companies to effectively sell more of their energy. I believe some places already do hourly dynamic billing. I'm sure there's a markup over the industrial scale cost, but dynamic pricing would be better for both parties if people know and are able to shift habits accordingly.
