I feel like I never get enough of the operational details to know. But intermittently running a capital intensive thing has bad economics. If the capital cost per m3 is $0.50 when the plant runs 24/7. It'll be $2.0/m3 if you cut it back to 6 hours a day.

However the details are important. You'd need to do a deep operations analysis to get an answer. That also would include energy storage as well.
