Negative prices occur all the time in the US. Not every day, but often enough when load is low and the wind is blowing. As more and more renewable are built, this will occur in increasing amounts. We still have to have non-green generation online as wind and solar can massively fluctuate. For the time being, the state commissions help out the utilities via legislation and increasing rates. This isn't some conspiracy, but what you do if you want available power 24x7.
