Gregory's Server@emberclimate @janrosenow Annual stats of an intermittent supply are at best misleading. Ontario has produced 8TWh of wind power so far this year. However to navigate the summer slump at 1GW 24/7 would now require $21.5 billion of $50kWh storage.

@icanbob @emberclimate @janrosenow Ontario's revenue in the 2023-2024 period was $204bln, so 1% of state revenue could build that out over the course of a decade, and that's if the province refused national funding and could be done much cheaper by just offering it out for tender for power companies to make profit off of.
