Ok, good to know. Then, why do you think the PV generation is being shut down during local overabundance ?

 Michael, I don't follow you. If, for example, southern cali has excess
 PV generation, it will need to ship that energy somewhere pretty far
 away, say oregon or washington. That would require a pretty substantial
 transmission line. I don't think the existing lines are sufficient.

There is plenty of transmission line capacity between SoCal and Oregon and 
Washington.  Thousands of MegaWatts routinely goes one way or the other between 
those locations.  There is the DC Pacific Interie (1 MV DC) between Celilo 
Oregon (near Bonneville Dam) and Sylmar, Calif (near Los Angeles) alone has a 
capacity of 3,100 MW, and the AC Pacific Intertie (multiple lines at 500 KV) 
has a capacity of 4,800 MW.  Additionally there are a bunch of other 500KV AC 
and 220 KV AC lines  that provide additional routes and capacities.
