oh and wind and solar can be less flexible too. you can turn coal and gas-fired generation on and off as needed, but many grids can't store excess electricity when the wind power is abundant and demand isn't high. at other times when demand for electricity is high, the wind won't co-operate. so it is quite a complicated procedure, although not totally useless.

p.s. i've posted many articles relating to wind and solar power on my commodities thread if you want to read more.
