This dynamic is evident in Germany, where wholesale
power prices are being depressed by must - dispatch, low - marginal cost renewables, but balancing this intermittency is causing retail

power stations and curtailment payments for
excess renewables.

excess electricity would surpass the EU annual electricity consumption.
That's because a working electricity system fueled mostly by wind turbines requires additional massive costs that a fossil fuel system does not: huge
excess capacity (perhaps 300 - 400 %) to deal with conditions of light wind; gigantic batteries to store
power for conditions of no wind at all, which can persist for days; extra transmission lines to bring electricity from windier areas to the rest of the country; and finally, an entire array of fossil fuel back - up plants for those occasions when the wind doesn't blow for a week and the batteries are dead.
