You missed my point. If the dams are running during the day, you done fucked up.

Why? Plenty of dams are perfectly capable of producing power 24/7. It may not even be possible to let the reservoir fill up during the day and drain it during the night, especially during a drought or flood period where the amount of incoming water very much dictates what you do with your dam and when. You make a lot of assumptions about how dams are operated. Those assumptions aren’t always true.
