400+ GW of installed solar in 2023 seems hardly a dead end...

  That's installed. How much energy does it produce during night? 0W

    Assuming a balanced installation across the world, that number is more like 200 GW. But whatever.

      Yes, because electricity consumers in the US profit at night when solar cells in Asia are generating electricity. /s

        That wasn't the question so, was it?

      The energy produced in a day from a solar panel is closer to 4-5 hours of its peak rating, not 12 as your statement suggests.
