Duck curve - Wikipedia
en.m.wikipedia.org
Gotta wonder how closely we match the duck curve if we are hitting power limits mid day?
I would think (as I had done in the past) that you match your personal heavy hitters (electric water heater, AC, freezer overcool, EV charge) to hit around 11am
AKA Charge at work and put your other stuff on timers to excessively heat cool, then let things settle.
My previous residence could get cooled enough during cheap power to leave the ac off when power wasn’t cheap, same said for water heating.
I had the tank insulated enough that it could only need to run once per day and be good enough.
Cali might consider shifting folks work hours like Spain and Mexico have done for centuries as well
