This is an affect of electric deregulation. This is very little incentive for any power company to build generating capacity to absorb these peaks.
I'm not a particular fan of the effects of electricity deregulation, but you first and second statements have no causal relationship between them. It isn't hard to think of different billing structures and electricity grid and futures markets which make these things more economically sensible. It /may/ have been a result of how deregulation was implemented. -- Alex Bligh VP Core Network, Concentric Network Corporation (formerly GX Networks, Xara Networks)
