The headline could also read: "Ancient infrastructure not prepared for increased energy use and slightly less predictable daily supply".

This, with a small side order of "change of energy traffic behavior could have totally been expected. Wasn't." Like in most things a less centralized flow (energy, data, money &c.) prefers a different infra to hub-and-spokes traffic. Make it easier/more affordable to supply surplus energy to your neighbors and you won't have to deal with moving stuff between neighborhoods/cities/regions as much.
Currently best solution is home batteries. Something I need to start looking into because unlike the "Flip the switch" suggests, everyone who actually has solar panels should make sure to consume as much energy as they can during those hours.
