Thanks a lot for that. I suppose it's in the end gonna be a combination of all those factors you mentioned. I don't know why I never considered just over-deploying. Seem like an obvious answer now that you point it out.
By the way, what is your source for the cost figures? I'd like to learn more about what those numbers include.

Thanks for the explanation. Now I'm all for wind instead of gas but I have a question here.
Isn't a big downside of wind power that it cannot be planned? I.e. you might not get the power you need when you need it. Is that an issue and if so, how would that be mitigated so we can rely more on wind power?

It's gonna be incremental. I also wish the increments where larger and more frequent but if you think solving the climate crisis will be like a Hollywood movie thing you will be disappointed.
