I'd rather see it in practice than on paper. Bitcoin mining is doing just that: by deploying miners in the field, energy producers are able to operate at maximum capacity regardless of the fluctuating demand from the grid, because any excess power can be traded for bitcoin rather than dollars. In addition, mining has created an incentive to deploy renewables in places where they are more effective, like geothermal vents or high wind areas.
Sure, in practice is better than on paper. We don't have it in practice, so it helps to have it on paper to get an idea of how to make it come about in practice.
What is the best book to paper outlining a complete reimagining of the electric market to make it a true free and competitive market?
