Do you mean my mentality or the one of the new technology?
It's not necessary to produce power 24/7 since demand isn't 24/7 either. Strong peaks and valleys.
Your mentality is old school. We have often more need at night than during the day for non renewable electricity right now
I see. Do you know what's using that power?
At night?
We use less power at night. We generate a LOT less power at night. Because the sun is off for the most part.
