Isn't the solution to charge more?

One could have a tiered rate system, where the first N kWhr are inexpensive and the rates rise after that (just as we do in Seattle)

If supply is constrained, and demand grows, it won't stop growing until the price goes up.

An imposition of a quota system is interesting, just because it might yield free residential heating for homes that welcome miners into their basements.
