Pretty trivial remark, but when the prices are so low, leading to most prices have two trailing zeros, couldn't we maybe switch for another unit than $/kWh ? Maybe $/MWh ? So we are currently at 29.9$/MWh.

For information, the average household in the world uses 3 MWh per year and a typical US one does a bit more than 10 MWh. Advanced and ecologically minded countries like Germany go down to 3 MWh.

Keep in mind that the location is important. Dubai has a lot of sun, you would not get this price with the same tech in, say, Canada.
