why pump at night? wouldn't it be better to pump while the solar panels are active? do they cover the water to stop it from evaporating?

- tallanvor 9y agoElectricity demand is lower at night, so they can use the excess electricity at that time to pump the water, and release it during the day to provide extra power during peak periods.
- jlebrech 9y agoso from the fossil fuel produced electricity. now it makes sense. So they'll eventually flip it over to day.
