@simonahac A bit like wind turbines that generate around 30% of their rated capacity. Not to mention the loss of land use and cost of storage/transmission/backup. #ausecon #auspol https://t.co/Vd5eYG79oW
Cost of wind energy generation should include energy storage allowance https://t.co/0VZP77TOS5
@JohnSmillie42 Those are very optimistic numbers. This https://t.co/2pu2tkwRSU gives .34 average and discusses the storage issues. That number is the turbine in isolation. Grid connected capacity factors are always lower because wind tends to produce power
RT @MarkHemer: Starting to see greater awareness of need to consider value rather than cost of renewable energy technologies. https://t.co/…

Starting to see greater awareness of need to consider value rather than cost of renewable energy technologies. https://t.co/UVKJ5h2v8a Advantages of consistent resources (offshore wind) being recognised.
