Lindsay,
Traditional power plants don't run at 100% capacity and ramping power up and down does take time.
One of the side benefits of devices such as the power wall (which I don't much like) may be load smoothing and the ability to time shift power use. I was surprised to see consumption curves that suggested most power is used from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m.

pianotuna That graph is rated capacity not actual. Solar and wind average less than 25% of the rated capacity, so your chart does not show what you wanted it to. Sorry.
