Hey, as someone who used to work for an energy utility looking at setting up a solar market place, there&#x27;s some info you&#x27;re missing:<p>- The wholesale price is the cost of generating electricity. The retail price includes the cost of serving the customer, i.e. billing. Sure, there are less transmission costs, but in New Zealand they only play about 20% of the retail cost.<p>- Also, just because midday rates of electricity are high, those high rates tend to subsidise the cost of running the network when rates are low (i.e. other times). Power Stations don&#x27;t come for free. People want security of supply, but then to be able to poach from the most profitable parts of the day?
