Have altenatives charge battery arrays that can then be used at whatever level needed as stored energy.

What society needs is a way to store electrical energy,
we already know plenty of ways to produce it.

EASY FIX -—> Get super-huge one hundred foot diameter ELECTRIC fans and mount them on towers BEHIND those three-propeller wind turbins. Problem solved: propellers turn 24 hours a day, even when there is no wind, thus producing electricity.

Wind power is a meaningless liberal wet dream.

What is needed is reliable, economical, power on-demand. Nuclear can do this if this country would just get its head out of its collective butt.

66 percent of Tea Party members would agree with having wind turbines near their homes (Saint Consulting Group, poll of 1,000 in US, June, 2011). 73 percent of men agreed but far fewer women.

Makes no sense because most modern turbines can “feather” their blades so they are at a 90 degree angle to the wind and they stop turning. Did the writer do any research at all?

They can also disconnect the turbines from the grid and lock the blades in place.

As for batteries. There aren’t enough in the world. The large turbines can produce 1.5 to 5 million megawatts an hour each at peak production.

We have a number of these being built in our area. They are 50 and 100 KW generators by CM energy and totally quiet.
