This should be the nail in the coffin of this boondoggle, but it won't be as long as you have the wackos pushing this scheme. Their next argument will be that is you are opposed to wind generation, you are racist.

Fact is, reliance on wind capacity builds in a structural requirement to burn more fossil fuels to make up for the time that the wind capacity is unavailable. The need for quick-start capacity when the wind generation goes down means natural gas, which simply gives the Russians, as the major supplier of NG, a greater stranglehold on the European economy.
