What are these plants doing each night?

Little known fact: Because there are nights, bad weather, etc. one 
essentially needs the necessary infrastructure for double the energy 
capacity for reliable on-demand output.. you just can't shut things down 
on cloudy days.  Don't you think some greedy solar-energy 
investors/shareholders are eventually going to expect handsome pay for 
that infrastructure -not unlike today's big-energy CEO's?  -especially 
if their gallantly protecting the planet for little ol' us.

I guess if you don't mind paying double or triple for your energy, you 
could enjoy the luxury of wind and solar plants.  That's why their 
subsidized-just wait till these subsidies disappear and we really get 
screwed.
