Reply #61: We can get a bunch of them and fast. 25% of all electricity

in Texas last October and November was from wind generators. The temporary slowdown is while 3 big new transmission lines are built to carry more load - turns out the only problem with wind is that it produces more electricity than the current grid can handle, so around 1/3 are idle, waiting on carrying capacity.

Which will be completed by September.

Months, not years.

Of course, if there is an earthquake with wind generators, and they fall over, all that wind will just blow all over the place. There's always that drawback.
