What Would a Harris Presidency Mean for the Climate?

10. Excellent reply

“… s the wind and solar that is not converted wasted? Or a lost opportunity cost?”

I see this as a difference without a distinction. Electricity which is generated, but not used, is a lost opportunity, and a waste.

We need a better distribution system, and fast. There’s always some place that needs electricity. If you cannot store it for use at a more opportune time, selling it (at a profit) is an attractive alternative. Giving it away is less appealing. Paying others to take it off your hands is indicative of a serious problem. (California is not the only state that faces this quandary.)
