Isolated this is a zero sum game in favor of buyers (someone has ti take the electricity), but longer term, this shows there needs to be better greater electricity storage solutions available, i.e batteries or similar.

Alternatively this is an economic opportunity for any industry that can usefully make use of intermittent free* energy.

* Long term I have to imagine this is just "cheap" because there's got to be tons of industries that can use intermittent free energy.

I argue that the number of such industries is and will be low.

Usually clients want consistency in the output. (they depend on the product/service)

Business owner usually wants consistency in employee/machinery output. (They cost money)

To me it seems that only low priority computation (incl. con-coins) is such industry. (Investment kind of reused, and relatively few employees)

There will be some shift to adjust to intermitency (e.g. Worker hours might be shifted to the time when solar generates the most energy to take advantage of the price)
