That solar is juicy but look at that consistent wind undercurrent. chef’s kiss

Losers have started to shift their argument from “the grid can’t handle solar” to “the grid can’t handle all the electric vehicles and the grid is already starting to load shed”

Those clowns have already again started to move to the cobalt mining argument (despite vendors increasingly dropping cobalt).

Fortunately, the donkey patrol is just loud online and seemingly have no impact on normal people

that’s a great graph, really looking forward to seeing those times where renewables exceed demand get more common then all flatten out as systems designed to use excess power are added - pumped storage for example and desalination can be scaled to match the excess.

Basically you have a desalination plant near your solar or wind and any excess power gets diverted there, fresh water is then pumped into lakes and reservoirs which can either be converted back into power via hydro or used in agriculture, industry and homes as needed.

This is splat’s main issue though: peak supply is at (nearly) minimum demand.
