Re:Solar and Wind Power So Cheap They’re Outgrowing Subsidies by ClumsyPilot on Thursday September 19, 2019 @11:18PM (#21023044)
I was assuming 100% solar, but sure you could go for wind. There is the general game of how much overcapacity you are willing to build -> in traditional grids your generation is slightly exceeding you peak needs. However, in renewable grid you probably should build significantly more (>>2X) than your peak needs, and minimise your need for battery storage.

That gives funny dynamics, where for some days electricity prices could be 0 or even negative.
