    It doesn’t look like wind power could get us thru a winter like this anytime soon.

    0.9% is actually pretty good. Last week wind contribution was only 0.1% of total demand on several days. Our 2.5GW of installed wind was only generating 1.7% of it’s rated capacity – in the coldest week of the year – when we need it most.

    And guess what UK politicians are planning: yes – they’re going to waste billions on tripling wind capacity. So we can look forward to wind generating 0.3% next winter (although our electricity bills will skyrocket)
