Call fired or even large power plants are becoming more and more obsolete as distributed power takes over the business

Right now in California more than 50% of the peak load of 60,000 MW is Photovoltaic on any given summer day in the sun

Furthermore small natural gas fired power plants of 40 to 60 MW are incredibly cheap and small and easy to Tie in
to the different distribution points For a utility

Yes, but at a cost, and correct me if I am wrong here but this is how I understand it. I have a friend doing the Solar install in CA and his juice goes to the grid not his home, unless he spends extra $ for the back-up system.

Mark Schnieder of the "GreenNuclearDeal" has noted the biggest promoter of Solar and Wind is the Natural Gas Lobby, since they get to back stop this deal w/ Natural Gas Fired Units.
