So buy this I can conclude that battery discharge is growing at 10% every 41 days. At this rate, by the lays of perpetual exponential growth, California battery discharge will exceed the total output of the sun by 2070!
But in all seriousness, this is more like doubling annually which is very fast.
Peak demand is about 37 GW; California would hit installed battery capacity = to total peak demand by 2 years from now, if this exponential growth kept up. If it’s just linear growth, they hit that mark in 5 years.Â
