Unfortunately, you don't get it either. The cost of electricity generation for coal and nuclear is roughly the same, about 3c/kWh. All the rest is distribution. The daily cost should be about $4, plus 3c/kWh. Of course, there'd be no incentives to save power then and every incentive to be off the grid leaving the burden for everyone else to pick up.

Could you qualify those 3c/kWh cost for coal and nuclear please.

Off the top of my head I think coal would now be at least 3 x that and nuclear 5 x but happy for you to find proof that coal and nuclear power stations can be built that produce power that cheap.
