I think Griddy is a cool idea but only if you have something to automatically cut your usage when the price spikes to $9 per kWh like it did last summer.

It spiked to the regulatory max of $5, which hit me while I was at work. I still saved money compared to most other energy plans in my area.

Though yes, it would have been better if I could have adjusted.
