I'm afraid it is quite so.
"they expect to produce more power" is incorrect.
As I said, if they had the capability of producing more power than they require, a grid connection wouldn't be needed.
They expect to produce more electrical energy.
It is an important and fundamental distinction evidently not well understood by many, including the jurno who wrote the article cited in post #1.

Power is an instantaneous measure.
