By considering oversized PV, the algorithm approximated the energy storage requirements for increasingly oversized PV. The result was a graph showing all possible configurations of PV and energy storage.

They like 2x PV and carbon sequestration for best ROI. That sounds like a carbon-tax friendly scenario.
