Or worst case, power some down. Excess electricity that can’t be used is a problem, it’s just that while solar may not be the easiest energy source to fix that problem with, it’s probably the second easiest behind wind. You can literally put retractable awnings over solar panels if you need to
Or lcd, fewer moving parts. That is quite an easy solution
Shit I’d never even considered using liquid crystals to modulate shading. And you could probably make it fail safe.
