    Solar or wind power curtailments isn’t necessary a problem. It likely makes sense to overbuild anyway to enough during other times. The political issue is that often incentive for renewable power can be tied to generation and it’s ot always about offering carbon emissions i.e. incentivising solar or wind to be built where it is relatively useless.
