Generation in this instance means power generation to meet consumption demand. Typically withdrawals from storage are counted as a source of supply to meet that demand regardless of the original source of the power in storage.
- nonethewiser 1y agoSo either the solar, wind, etc. datapoints are not being stored or they are double counting. It seems very unlikely all these solar, wind, etc. generators are not storing energy.
- tobylane 1y agoIt depends on what you're thinking of. No, the solar panels on my roof have no battery on the property. The wind turbines will have inertia, but no other store. I doubt the majority of the solar panel farms have batteries.
- nonethewiser 1y agoIm thinking of generation
- tobylane 1y agoIt's an input to the grid. They will also be an output.
- nonethewiser 1y agoYeah input would be a better label I think.
