You get paid when people on your grid demand the electricity your plant produces. That's true whether the electricity comes from the sun or fossilized trees.
A/C usage peaks during the day and wanes at night. Laborers in virtually every field tend to work during daylight hours and sleep at night. We use more electricity when the sun is shining.
Even before you get into battery power, we have ample opportunity to grow solar inputs into the grid before we get to the point where its being wasted. At peak capacity, we're using far more electricity than current renewables provide.
Batteries are a late stage solution to a marginal problem.
