Spyros Foteinis highlights the acknowledged problem that an insufficient capacity to store energy can result in generated renewable energy being wasted (Nature 632, 29; 2024). But the risks for power-system security of the converse problem — excessive energy storage — have been mostly overlooked.
[pdf] Solar power is an important contributor to electricity generation in , accounting for 11.8% of total generation in 2023, up from 0.6% in 2010 and less than 0.1% in 2000. Total installed solar power capacity in the country reached 30.3 GW at the end of 2023. Current (2023) government plans are targeting solar PV capacity to ri.
