@cyrilwaechter here's the original article https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-02-14/china-s-wind-and-solar-are-now-almost-enough-to-power-every-home there is a question of the full lifecycle costs for wind and solar, I haven't seen studies on what that looks like for Chinese manufacturing process |
@yogthos Link is not working but it is probably both true and wrong. True because you probably can reach peak power with it would require a lot more than peak power combine with huge storage capacities. It would consume too much resources too be sustainable.
There is a French report made by French electric grid maintainer which propose multiple scenarii. About the one with only solar + wind, people that work on ore resources (copper, aluminium, etc…) says «far too much ore required».
