Well, USA, a lot of power companies have built HUGE

The demand is NOT highest during the day, It is highest at the  end of the day when temperatures peak and the sun has gone down
The massive drop off in solar has to be replaced by something else, but never to the cost of those making money out of solar. Only the consumer pays more instead.
