thanks google, I'll be sure to check out the Electric Digital Authority Market that doesn't exist after I'm done reading about the Extended Day-Ahead Market (EDAM) that I was searching for something on
this is such a weirdly specific fuckup

you would need sustained astronomically high capacity prices to lower total bills by 20% with ~24 GW (after ELCC adjustment) of DR between the two largest markets given everything that goes into a bill
upstream, all-in prices in past years are useful to get a handle on wholesale costs 🔌💡

Saw this the other day and some *extremely* back of the envelope math got me to potentially ~1M barrels/day of demand destruction for a year of 60% ICE sales (2024) to 3% (2030), which is approaching 1% of current global demand on its own
