The problem IMO, is power companies want to build "grid tied" shit so they can sell the power where ever.. Solar as an example is power system that should be more focused on local usage with battery storage banks. That is where solar shines so to speak. I'm not really a fan of grid tied wind wars or grid tied solar as there is no way to store that power meaning it can never be consistent.
other countries do fine with wind, you need to choose the right location
