>to take advantage of "free" summer electricity you might have to lay off all your workers half the year not to mention building surplus transmission infrastructure.

Great comment.

Whichever industry you choose as a Factobattery, you should expect some added costs due to seasonal intermittency. The question is: which industry has the lowest added cost per kWh?

Has there ever been a study to rank order which industrial processes make the best Factobatteries?
