    Green energy can’t be scarce, therefore cheap. Solar, wind, water, never happen. They can always slow the generators, can’t slow the sun.

        Considering the only conclusion so far is that there was a surge and final reports are not in yet, do enlighten (pun intended).

          There won’t be ever a report that’s how Spain operates.

          One of the possible reasons was too much sun power and not enough demand. Solar and wind are unreliable.

            No.

            The issue wasn’t that there was too much generation, or that it is unreliable.

            It was a grid issue, it wouldn’t have mattered what generation was used (solar, wind, gas, nuclear, coal, etc…).

            Don’t be mislead by everyone who jumped on the coal bandwagon a day after the incident before we even knew what the cause was.

      You need a place to store that energy, a way to convert it so it’s usable, transfer it to where it is needed. Etc.
