>>It is important to note that within Germany’s generation data, Ember’s analysis has identified an unusual trend of declining solar irradiance-adjusted performance over the past several years. We do not yet have a definitive explanation for why this is, but it could be related to challenges in measuring behind-the-meter solar generation, exacerbated recently by high levels of residential battery storage. Regardless of the cause, it is possible that there is under-reporting of German solar generation.

It was 10% before, the recent drops in fleet capacity factors are explained by cannibalization/curtailment and the best locations already gone.

Which will be immediately unlocked as storage gets built.

In Germany 51 GW is already approved with another 400 GW/661 GWh in interconnection queue.

Er, no it won't.

Why did you try to completely change the subject to "baseload" solar rather than your previous point of "cannibalizing/curtailment"?

I will take that as an admission that storage will unlock the curtailed/cannibalized renewables and further reduce the economic outlook for any fuel driven electricity generation like coal, gas and nuclear power.
