The reason is because the government felt the need to come in and set the prices. It’s BS this isn’t what people who signed up with Griddy agreed to

Actually it's part of the established system created by the power generators and the regulators. These mandated price spikes have happened numerous times, usually in the summer, but are common knowledge. But of course, many people are just dumb and don't understand or have knowledge of the way this works. The best thing would be to get rid of these variable rate contracts.
