I found some numbers for total PG&E generation in 2017 and based on that 675mWh would be about 10 minutes worth of power.

- liketochill 4y agoThe peak demand in the WECC is about 170,000 MW, so 675/17000060min/hr60s/min=14 seconds with of power. While the time is interesting for context, it is more about reducing the magnitude of the peak when there are no other generators to bring online or transmission capacity is saturated than powering the entire load.
