This might be a bad thing ecologically, but I have wondered whether
someone could make money by arbitraging electricity between utility
customers who are paying different rates. I haven't tried to
calculate whether this is plausible, though. (It's obviously
plausible between households in different housing units in the same
building, using extension cables.)
