- marcosdumay 4y agoWholesale buyers are willing to pay 3x to 5x (depends on the location) more than electricity distributors. Electricity distributors may add a markup of over 10x on resale. For many reasons, it's easier to get energy out of them so you just won't pay the full ~10x markup on the wholesale market.
