California occasionally has to pay other states to take excess power.
- ZeroGravitas 9y agoI think that is due to Federal subsidies, as long as they pay less than the subsidy they profit so you could also say: The Federal government is subsidizing solar production to displace fossil fuel generation. Which, unlike the headlines about 'negative prices' and being 'forced to pay other states to take their excess' sounds boring and sensible.
