PG&E recently introduced a new hourly rate plan that brings dynamic pricing to electricity. This fundamentally changes the economics of charging an EV, with generation rates dropping as low as $0.01 per kWh—a stark contrast to the typical ~$0.30. Alongside this, PG&E released an API to check real-time pricing. That got me thinking: how easy would it be to build a simple dashboard to track prices and optimize charging? With AI, the entire process was surprisingly fast. I had it generate the code in minutes, followed step-by-step deployment instructions, and ended up with a functional dashboard that: • Displays daily prices • Highlights the four cheapest hours • Highlights the four most expensive hours • Allows users to download the data as a CSV for further analysis Give it a try: pgehourly.streamlit.app This is a great example of how AI can assist people with no coding skills in building their own tools to meet their needs.
I’d love to see a Product Hunt-style platform, but focused on Ethereum-based products.
