Yep! Exactly my point.

But the sun doesn’t shine all the time, and the wind doesn’t blow. You can’t take much baseline capacity off with either.

as a further aside, back in I believe ‘96, I went on a fantastic hike of 12 days at Philmont Scout Ranch. We hiked far back into the severe and beautiful boon docks where there were established camps.

There were wind mills there...... non functioning wind mills. They had been replaced by solar cells that glommed on the wonderful New Mexico sun and charged the batteries that ran the water pumps.
