Jason Crawford(@jasoncrawford):Paper looking at off-grid solar power for data centers. 100% solar+batteries is still way more expensive than gas, but ~50–90% solar+batteries backed by gas is close to gas in price. (How much further do PV/battery prices have to fall for some combo to beat gas alone?)
