Come get some .027 up here in Washington State Smiley   God I love hydro electric power.  

If it is so great (0.027 per kwh), why no business is trying to supply this to the struggling bitcoin miners. I've seen some indications here and there, but nothing substantial so far. They are either noneexistant or have so many orders that they don't bother to reply to emails and PMs  Sad

That would be a godsend.

From my digging cheap (relative) clean power is getting sold to California from producers in other states.  There's some shell games of what happens with the money, but someones or some groups are making out nice.  But given Californians are paying up to 0.35c for what's being produced and delivered elsewhere at 0.027, some entity is making a killing on the spread.  California Utilities have to supply x% of power from clean sources, they buy out of state to achieve this.  States who can supply the clean energy can mark up when selling to Cali and then provide their states own needs with cheaper sources.
