It’s a neat idea to over-cool in order to reduce consumption later on!

Your probably right, you can’t catch each bug I guess

As an economist I can confidentally say that he should go a different route. You/ he can show me/us more if he wants to. Maybe we can tell where the problem is.

If not, swap as others have stated is the way to go

I was also used to npm. But caddy(file) is much cleaner and nicer and less hassle. It can be more difficult to set up because you may have to learn some things as it has no ui

My config is so barebones it doesn’t need a UI.

But when I started out, a UI would’ve been amazing

Immich is still unstable. This shouldn’t happen to a stable project.

What it tells me is that you need a regular backup

That’s understandable but do we need it now? Neither pv nor batteries last forever. I’m just not sure if we need them now (or short-medium term future). But I’m not in the position to decide upon it

Do you have a source for the cooling off effect of the duck curve?

Following is a 2 year old article hinting an increase in the effect https://www.powermag.com/epri-head-duck-curve-now-looks-like-a-canyon/ afaik it hasn’t changed much but I’m open to news

Why do you want a subsidy for batteries? Installing batteries at a large scale at homes is incredibly expensive compared to an off site battery. Especially with regards to the move towards hydrogen.

Thx for doing the math

Peak load of households is not during peak solar power generation. Households installing pv isn’t a solution to what you described.

Today, you could also use a battery to buy power during mid day and use it in the evening when you need it the most.
