A little more great stuff from California. We have enough installed batteries now that we can make it through evening peak under most conditions, with some help from neighbors of course. However there is now a morning peak because solar isn’t functioning yet and the batteries are all drained from last night. There have been several near misses. Another issue is building as people start their car chargers at midnight, no solar, little wind, dead batteries. The duck curve has turned into the Oh Shit curve
