- dpierce9 11y agoNo. Solar consumption does peak midday but that is trivial because electricity is nearly always used when it is produced. Electricity demand, which is basically the same thing as consumption, peaks midday (as do prices). And solar production peaks midday. The fact that solar production matches demand is a nice feature of solar that I think militates in favor of net-metering policies.
- tomp 11y agoOk, I get it... I misread and misunderstood your comment in a few different ways :)
- cstejerean 11y agoElectricity consumption peaks mid-day, solar or not. Solar production happens to also peak mid-day, which is great because it coincides with the peak consumption period, which makes it more valuable.
