Or excess solar power. I know of several people who switch to electric heating sometimes because they produce more than they consume and they don't get paid for the excess.
As I mentioned above, our current Beta users earning $10+ / week have communicated that they have not seen any significant changes on their electric bills.
Lots of people have access to other people's electricity, often in conjunction with access to other people's hardware.
