Some hobbyists turn up the set point on their electric water heater to store the power as domestic hot water.

Now that's a good idea! I have a couple of ideas to automate that. Crank the hot water balls out during peak production hours, but cut it off at night. Something like that?

Sounds like a deal for power companies that change prices during on/off peak hours. But wait, am I backwards? Typically peak power costs more? Anyone?

You seem confused.

Peak Solar hours and peak utility rate hours are different. Often both are shorted to "peak hours".
