> In Norway, the electric utilities use the FM radio text channel (the one that announces songs on fancy radios) to announce current electricity rates, and their meters pick it up and use it. That's a start. Does Norway have a static electricity price? With PG&E the cost of electricity varies wildly household to household, and you need to decipher a labyrinth of different rate and “time of use plans”, and there’s baseline allowances... the whole thing is opaque. There’s never actually a “here’s what electricity cost right now” true answer.
