- ZeroGravitas 11y agoIt's a little weird that the article claims that the problem is worst in winter, when there is least sun. Also, that graph is unreadable? I'm already aware of what the duck curve is, and I can't make head nor tail of it.
- rhino369 11y agoI bet it's a problem in the winter due to A/C and electric heating. When it's sunny in summer, solar production goes up but it also makes people use A/C more. There is significant canceling out. In winter, solar production goes up, but people use less energy due to electric heaters not be as needed since it's warmer. Not a lot of the country uses electric heaters, but it's enough to add to the problem.
