In an early post I charted how the monthly demands in the PJM
grid which manages the supply of electricity to Pennsylvania and
neighboring states. The chart shows that when our electricity
supplies are the greatest, in the summer, you can depend on the
fact that wind speeds are appreciably lower causing marked
decrease in electricity generation from wind. What this means is
that it does not matter how many wind turbines you build for a
grid, you will ALWAYS have 100% duplication of the installed
wind MW by traditional sources, (nat gas, coal, nuclear or hydo)
because you can expect the wind to completely die on almost a
daily basis for a period of time. My early posts prove that
beyond doubt. See the youtube video I created to show how
completely unreliable North Dakota wind is, touted as the #1
wind in the country. note: Basin Electric from ND removed their
weekly wind chart updates right after I posted that youtube
video. Today we look at how the wind output is not in sync with
the users demand. The line is
