This is so great! I live in Iowa, one of the leading states in the U.S. producing energy from wind. That question about the grid and how we handle getting the power where it needs to go as well as how to keep it steady and reliable is something I didn't quite understand yet. I'm glad there are solutions on the horizon. In the meantime, I love the view on my horizon of hundreds of graceful feats of engineering turning with the prairie breeze.,(reply>), Kelli, if it’s  breeze it is very unlikely the the turbines are producing any electricity. Nothing, when the breeze is below a certain threshold.Wind  turbines HAVE TO HAVE INERTIA BACK UP UNDER THESE CONDITIONS.
