Turning your lights and aircon on for 8 hours during the day isn’t going to light and cool your house after dark.

Unless we all turn nocturnal what you’re saying is ridiculous.

I was talking about industrial usage, the main usage of electricity. But you're also wrong on your own point if you're home is properly insulated.

isn’t going to ... cool your house after dark. .

Do you live in a paper box or something? If I cool my house it stays cool for up to two days. I mean it's fairly new (from the late 19th century I think) but still, running the AC all day should be enough for the night even in older homes.

I'm guessing you live in a shoebox, and not in a climate where it wildly shifts from 35+ degrees c to low single digits in a single day.
