WaPo: Rooftop solar panels are flooding California’s grid. That’s a problem. https://www.washingtonpost.com/climate-environment/2024/04/22/california-solar-duck-curve-rooftop/

@ai6yr Wish they had spent more time talking about storage solutions and efforts rather than handwringing about the pricing issues.

*article seems to be a reasonable coverage of the problem of the "duck curve"--too much solar power but no where to store it, and too steep of a ramp --but the news article will be cited by the right wing on "why solar power is bad and we shouldn't use it".

@ai6yr Any time I see "news" (quoted bc that's a tainted term nowadays) that reports on issues like this, where the solutions can be relieved with money, in part, or in whole, I think of the massive MIC/Oil/Gas industry, just chugging along soaking up trillions of dollars, as well as tangible resources squandered on crap that is killing this planet.
