Yes -- the alignment between peak solar production and peak demand isn't perfect, but it's not that far off. As a result, there's massive profits to be had in arbitrage -- for the utilities to buy surplus solar and sell it to neighbors rather than fire up their most expensive peaking plants, and to repay solar producers with surplus dirt cheap overnight baseload electricity that would otherwise just go to waste. But massive profits from arbitrage aren't enough, so they're killing the goose that lays the golden eggs. And signing their own death warrants by doing so. b& _______________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE: http://www.evdl.org/help/index.html#usub http://lists.evdl.org/listinfo.cgi/ev-evdl.org Read EVAngel's EV News at http://evdl.org/evln/ Please discuss EV drag racing at NEDRA (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NEDRA)
