I was merely just trying to do a calculation to put it in context. A lot of people in the comments are talking about how unfair it has gotten for consumers for this to happen. I am just trying to state that it is not as much of a burden if its put in terms of the actual potential monetary harm. When most people see "prices soar 6000 percent" most people assume that this doesnt just mean a $15 total icnrease. There is an obvious trade-off in cost here. If a state wanted to it could force its citizens to pay twice as much for its power and build twice as much power plants. Or force people to build solar panels on all new construction etc. People may ultimately say this is more of a burden for the typical user even if it would avoid the 2 times a year where everything goes wrong.
