Great idea, but that also comes at an additional cost - who would you recommend should pay for that cost?


Storage comes at a cost, but storing cheap/free power offsets even bigger generation costs. So the power company should pay to build storage.

There's a point where the grid has so much solar power that we need to start shedding production as a general rule and not just as an intermittent temporary measure, but I don't think we're anywhere near that point.
