    you want to try to have the daytime price stay in the negative as often as possible.

    That’s not exactly conducive towards people building more solar.

      The solar isn’t the goal; the energy is enabling the value in other parts of the economy.

      In fact; energy supply is so important to the reasonable functioning of the economy. It should be taken out of the profit driven cycle of business.

      Look at what happened with WPI in Ohakune and PanPack when energy prices sky rocketed a few months back.
