Surely all California needs is to multiply the number of batteries right?
1."California's batteries took over gas as the primary source" so lets say conservatively gas was 50% - 2 x the current battery count (CBC)
2. "and, for a few minutes, pumped out 7,046 megawatts of electricity" so lets say conservatively few = 4 - That's 24hr*60min/hr / 4 = 360CBC. 2 x 360 = 720 CBC
3. They will need to charge batteries while others are discharging - so that's 2 x 720 = 1440 CBC
4. Now the allowance for wind and solar output. Assume California capacity factor 0.15 and wind 0.25 - average 0.2. That's 1440 * 5 = 7,200 CBC
5. Now how many days is it possible that there is no wind or sun? Assume it could be as short as a week. Say 7 x 7,200 = 50,400.
So as we can see - California only needs to expand its battery provision by a factor of 50,000, and hope for no more than 1 week of energy capture from sun and wind.
What's the problem?
