Unlike fossil fuels and other energy sources, solar energy production is less predictable. It can fluctuate seasonally and even hour to hour as local weather changes. In addition, we know that solar energy is only produced when the sun is shining on the solar panels, which means that there are several hours.

Solar PV sources cannot provide constant energy supply and introduce a potential unbalance in generation and demand, especially in off-peak periods when PV generates more energy and in peak period when load demand rises too high. Because of its intermittent and irregular nature, PV generation makes grid management a difficult task.
