Record for Saudi, or record in general...?
'Cause I'm currently paying (CAD) between $109.7 and $140.8 (so USD $79.9 - $102.5) per MWh.
Edit: Damn it, I shifted a decimal in the mental conversion from KWh to MWh. Fixed the values above. (10x)
That Saudi power is much cheaper than I thought...
Cries in USA, paying $230/mWh. At least solar effectively zeroes out my usage via net metering, in the warmer months.
That's milliwatt hours, and not megawatt hours. Capital M for mega, lower case m for milli in units.
Or maybe prices are just 230.000.000.000 USD/MWh...do you happen to live in Texas?
