Solar energy production starts to dwindle by September. Solar power peaks earlier in the summer when the days are longer. By September, the sun sets earlier in the evening, and solar power production tapers off when people are still using substantial amounts of electricity in the evening. heat pumps !).

Advocates of renewable energy have argued since the 1970s that the variable, weather-dependent nature of sunlight and wind is a modest obstacle at best to relying on 100 percent renewables. Some have argued that weather-dependent energies would, paradoxically, make electricity even more reliable. percent, 47.4
