California faces a "duck curve" energy challenge due to excess solar power generation.
California faces an unexpected energy challenge as it generates too much solar power at times, causing some clean energy to go to waste. This issue, known as the "duck curve," occurs when solar production exceeds demand, particularly on sunny days in spring with less power usage and air conditioning. As states ramp up solar production, they are likely to encounter similar challenges.
