wind (and other renewables) will fall short of slashing carbon emissions, because there just isn't enough of it in the U.S. Based on data from a company owned by one of the study's authors, this map's white areas show where
wind turbines would be most effective — but because
wind isn't available all the time, they'd only produce roughly 50 percent of the energy
wind turbines could

But every time I take a closer look
at the balance sheet, it's a bloody challenge... For example, the value of operating

at a total project cost of $ 715 M, is equiv.
Wind Waker allowed Link the
capacity to pick up weapons wielded by enemies for the first time, but it did not permit him to keep them, while Skyward Sword, which is set
at the earliest point in the Zelda timeline, is effectively the story of the forging of the Master Sword and thus has a sequence of swords that represent the steps along this path (Goddess Sword, Goddess Longsword, Goddess White Sword, Master Sword, and finally True Master Sword).
And yes central power will be another piece (nuclear is great for baseload power... it operates
at 90 %
capacity factors even if the price of building a new plant has risen by 130 % since 2000) Centralized
wind and solar will mature but then there's the transmission issue...
American nuclear power reactors operated that year around the clock
at about 90 percent
capacity, whereas coal - fired plants operated

wind turbine (that would be 19TW rated
capacity) providing half of the global energy demand
at 11.5 TW (that is 28 % utilization which seems to be optimistic and the number I read so far where more around 10 - 20 %
at best).
Pointing to Europe, they cite
at least two major studies that reached identical conclusions: (1)
wind power actually provides only 8 percent effective

capacity will fall continuously to 4 percent by 2020.
Consequently with the dramatic decrease in efficiency of fuel burn in the standby fossil fuel generators there is sweet FA practical reduction in CO2 emissions with the introduction of
wind and solar power generation systems particularly when the energy costs of the producing and building the so called renewable energy systems are added to the grossly inefficient running of the ready to go to full generation
capacity in minutes, fossil fuel powered standby generators which in many cases must be kept running
at low or zero power generation to be able to come on line in minutes when the so called renewable energy systems fail to produce power,

at or above that which Clinton is discussing: Since solar panels and
wind turbines can't currently work

Considering that most
wind farms don't generate
at full
capacity very often it should be obvious even to the writer of STT that the average
wind farm must generate power far more than 25 % of the time.
Because of intermittency and seasonal variability, the Texas grid (Electric Reliability Council of Texas) rates
wind generation only
at 8.7 percent of
wind's installed
capacity.
Note that the long transmission lines to remote areas also reduces the reliability and probable availability of
wind farms (and, importantly,
at times of peak demand which is what is relevant for
capacity credit calculations)
In South Australia, for example, a figure of 3 per cent of installed
wind capacity is used to represent the contribution to overall generation supply
at times of peak demand; 8 per cent is used in Victoria.
