Anyone successfully calculating energy savings with hourly pricing (ComEd)?

I am on ComEd's hourly pricing plan, which means I am charged/paid for my use/production based on the average price during that hour.

ComEd makes its pricing information available via API, and I have access to my Enphase data within Home Assistant.

So, I want to be able to do [Hourly production/export/use] times [ComEd live price] for each hour to get my daily numbers.

It all seems rather trivial, yet I cannot figure out how to do it.

Bro has the “you can’t hurt me” deck

I lol’d once I realized what he was doing. Haven’t run into that deck before.

I still ended up winning by a hair with a lucky Wugtrio hit and Elemental Switch+Chien-pao.

ACA Premium increased $695/mo mid-year when adding third child (Illinois)

We are keeping the same plan, and our premium tax credit is unchanged. The monthly premium after credits for our Illinois BCBS Gold PPO increased from ~$1,000/mo to $1,695 when adding a third child.

I called to see why, and was informed that unlike most private BCBS plans that have a flat "family" rate, each successive child increases the premium.

$8,400 dollars a year extra for one additional child.

Outside of a catastrophic injury our kids would never incur even a small fraction of that amount in annual medical expenses.

This is madness.
