This isn't a data center specific answer but it may help explain upstream cost drivers that may factor into rates seen. For commercial and industrial customers, utilities will often measure and bill power demand in kW separate from energy in kWh. Energy may only be $0.04/kWh but demand charges can

We see lots of different approaches to this, depending on the datacenter operator: 1. Customer pays for power overage at an agreed to rate that is usually the same as their committed rate (but could be more). This could be based on a: * Per KW consumed * Per KWh consumed
