[QUOTE="backhoeboogie, post: 807504, member: 3162"] Weight too. Those batteries are heavy. It throws a lot of extra load on the cars. Wind generation creates so much instability that practically all grids are having to be backfitted with the ability to shed loads to protect turbines. Better battery technology would help if wind could be put into batteries and stabilized. Until that happens, wind turbines are disasters waiting to happen. Conventional power plants are being asked to cut back on generation (now without compensation) and increase VARS. Who's gonna pay for this? Hydro is rock solid and stable. We don't have enough capability in these parts to accomodate hydro. We, unfortunaately, have a good wind source. In the mean time we are playing second fiddle to China in every way. They can produce everything with little enforced regulation. It helps on cost, it helps on production, and practically every avenue there is. Hug a tree. Afterall, you can't beat them. You may as well join them it seems. Don't starve tho. [/QUOTE]
