@Ruth_Mottram it's such a tragedy that destructive projects like that are taking place, but OTOH, wind turbines work only *within certain limits*, multi-days grid storage is a huge challenge, seasonal storage is a pipe dream. By being collectively in denial for the need of significant amount of reliable base-load power, we've backed ourselves in a corner.

In some people's mind, if grid availability becomes random, we'll simply decrease our consumption and change our habits, with infinite flexibility. In reality, any country that is not ready to accept total industrial subservience will (1) try to conserve any baseload option even the dirtiest one, and when all else fails (2) all entities with the means to do it will switch to off-grid diesel/gas/coal/wood generators.
