  I get that it's more, but I clicked through to read the article expecting something insane like the $9/kWh rates in Texas earlier this year.

    Texan here, that's the wholesale rate. Only people on wholesale plans (now banned I believe) would have paid that. I paid 9c per kWh during the whole ordeal while wholesale pegged at $9 per kWh. My price is fixed at 8.9c per kWh for 2 years.

      Sure, consumers are normally shielded from the wholesale market by regulation or contract (although not necessarily in Texas, as some learned), but I'm pretty sure the graph posted by the GP is the day-ahead wholesale market for some jurisdiction.
