We have only reduced the needed firm capacity by ~8-16% (depending on the storage scale beyond diurnal).
To actually cover this period we would need ~2X overgeneration, of mostly wind, and 100 hours of storage.

I have been playing around with an interesting concept here - the tradeoff curves of capacity vs storage.
First for a completely clean + storage system. This is what we need for Ontario for a no FF system with current demand profile, assuming starting from scratch for clarity. 🔌💡

How are the results affected by more or less over-generation?
~13% overgeneration appears to be near optimal, but if new flexible demand that can use 50% of curtailed supply becomes available then that can reduce costs and increase the optimal amount of overgeneration.

A paper in Nature Comm. directly answers that (albeit for 3 hours storage).

For 1× overgeneration and 3 h storage (red arrow on graph),
and the most reliable solar-wind mix for the UK,
the power supply gap will be 0% for over 3000 h/year.

Alternatively, if I noticed my premises are inconsistent, and I think that inconsistencies entail everything, my argument has a clear overgeneration problem.

Worrying that one's premises overgenerate seems like a fairly normal thing to do, doesn't it?

Using the same investment on Energy Storage of currently lost overgeneration that vastly improves the Supply with Demand would undoubtedly be a far better energy project than another inefficient nuclear kettle that suffocates all the fish in the river and proliferates Stockpiles of Radioactive Waste

No matter what, batteries are already too cheap and too good for hydrogen to be ever viable large scale. Funny or not holzgas does the job. Hydrogen does not. Yes we need more hydrogen manufacturing as a side effect of overgeneration of electricity but nope H2 will not be useful for transportation.

I can't tell you how much I've wanted to encounter semanticists working to constrain their operations.

I'm sure it's been happening, but so much of my exposure to semantics has been about adding theoretical constructs to account for data without much being said to address the overgeneration problem
people: "the type-shifting operation is unconstrained"
Dayal: "yes, it is the job of the theoretician to add constraints."

idea: you can do type shift to kinds, definites, but not to […blerg, I didn't write down what she said in time]

Social philosophers! Check out this short new paper in which I revisit my dilemmatic account of gaslighting and think about what kind of evidence should lead us to doubt our epistemic competence in different domains.

Anti-intentionalist, purely epistemic accounts of gaslighting that center its dilemmatic structure have a range of attractive features. However, they appear to face an overgeneration problem: if there...
