Even if I log in online there is no way to see what I use even per day. I do think we need to have a price that changes during the day but I suspect most people wont tolerate it and the politicians wont allow it.

In Denmark, I can see my hour-by-hour usage if I log in online.

There's also a chart showing the prices: https://andelenergi.dk/el/timepris/

and apps and so on.

Yeah my Dad has this too. I expected similar. Lots of rules in the USA makes it difficult to do anything different.
