I guess you don't understand economics. Solar power providers should boil water instead of being profitable!
We don't have to make everything about profit, if a company can afford to operate and pay their employees a living wage they're a success. They don't need to make tons of extra money on top of that
Surplus can go into research, innovation, growing the business, etc. But I agree, they don't NEED to do anything, they should be free to run their business however they want.
Yeas, when prices go negative in my country Home Assistant absolutely does switch on my electric water heater. It save me substantial amounts.
