I think you are out of touch. You need to compare the PGE rates with SMUD to get the picture.

PGE's off-peak rates are 3x SMUD's off-peak rates. PGE's peak rates are 1.5x to almost 2x of SMUD's peak rates.

There’s no need to be disrespectful. Just as I need to understand that you have a different rate than I did, vice versa.

You’re missing the actual point of my original post

This was your first comment in the thread.

If you don't want the point of your original post to be missed, don't make it cryptic and have surprised pikachu face when multiple people miss your point. We are not attending a stand up comedy here to understand your tone in this text format.
