Re:Solar and storage projects drive utility-scale deployment... by diafygi on Wednesday April 03, 2019 @03:07PM (#19566240)
Within the past few years, solar+batteries is starting to win bids against new natural gas generation in many common peak-related situations (not all yet, but increasingly so). The expectation is that solar+storage will win most peak-related bids by 2025 and then win most baseload bids by 2035.

After that, it will likely start to displace existing natural gas similar to what it's doing for coal now.
