"Problem solved" by the porch lights indeed.

I think only a few companies are in it. They agglomerate industrial users and bid into the market. I don't really understand it, almost like a trading desk. AESO send out directives to these guys and then they send it to the users. There is also a side of power plants that can bump of production too.

This is one of them. Every jursidiction is a little different too. I think Ontario is the only other province that has it. They tell me limiting it to $999/MW makes it worse.
