People still want their software to work at night. And last I checked, Louisiana had access to lots of water.

Wait, are you making a “with solar electricity will go away at night” argument?
Because it does? You either have to have a dispatchable energy source to turn on at night and on cloudy days (usually fossil fuels), or storage for 12+ hours. Actually more than 12 hours in case there's extended periods of cloud cover.
