No argument regarding battery storage. It's a very good idea.

The number of power stations needed always depends on peak demand. Average demand and peak demand vary considerably and the number of power stations should ideally depend on Average Demand, not Peak Demand.

Storage capacity evens out the load.

The argument against wind and solar still stands. They only work some of the time, so we need more of them. And you need more storage.

Solar and Wind will have won the argument when my bills for Energy go down, not triple (They have not doubled in the last 5 years, they have tripled+)

So the likes of Lomborg will be listened to until proven otherwise.

At the moment he seems to be bang on.

He will keep drinking the KoolAid.

Because he doesn't know how it works!
