This has already happened, or cycling on a daily basis. This all depends if a merchant vs utility and what your portfolio looks like. Most markets, run an economic dispatch to run the cheapest plant at the top, then followed by the next most efficient...and so on. This will for sure be interesting on how the market is changed, better or worse.
