Your interpretation is right, and to be honest, most design engineers have been doing that. I actually see a scenario where the engineers would make all internal loads 100% of their peak power at all times.

One change that I can suggest is that your HVAC should be ON through the whole day. Otherwise, you will get those high-peaks for the heat gain that has been accumulating in the space.
