Wind power has hit its limits in Europe

Beskrivelse

"We cannot have an electricity system that is based solely on wind and solar. There are stark technical and economic limits to how much we can integrate into the grid," says Brian Vad Mathiesen, a professor at Aalborg University in Denmark. He comments on the challenges faced by Denmark and Sweden in expanding offshore wind capacity due to falling power prices and incentives. The countries, once leaders in this field, are now seeing a slowdown in wind development, risking a prolonged reliance on fossil fuels. (Summary provided by Infomedia). Sources:Blogarama, 12-12-2024
