What is the guaranteed power output 24/7 of any windmill.

No windmill is guaranteed 24/7 online. A category 5 hurricane could take out hundreds if not thousands. They want to build a farm out in the water around Cape Cod. I've seen ships where the gun mount was removed by a wave.

I wonder what a tital wave would do. It's nice when nature wrecks a place and even takes down power lines that the power plant is not also destroyed. Rebuilding with no electricity is painful.

delbie you can rant and have a hissyfit, but you have never thought out the rick and consequences of using wind for anything other than saving money during peak and some off hours based on a lucky wind.
