Wind power and battery storage fails in Australia.
We have some wind farms in Southern Alberta and I always wondered just how beneficial they really are. I've heard quite often that they aren't working out like they are supposed to in other locations. Here's a report from Australia that seems to confirm this:

"We are not here to debate the wind industry, we are here to DESTROY IT!"
I wonder what their point of view would be? Not sure I would consider that an unbiased source

The wind turbines are an eye sore and solar power plants with battery backup is a joke!! Lets face it, what happens on a calm night? where does the power come from? Batteries!!
If they want clean power they need nuclear power, but the stupid greenies are against it. What amazes me is that they dump other countries nuclear waste here!!
