Well over 2kW - say 3kW
and a few hundred watts - say 200W
equals ... 6.666etc%
So 7% approx or 20%.
Take your pick!
And this is available for shorter periods in the winter when demand is higher.
ICBA to follow your highly speculative calculation; just look at the graphs.
That's why you have the wood burning stove.
Nothing speculative about it!They are his words! What's more the figures tie in with long term spot tests I've done.
Look at the graphs again and there are a number of deep troughs aroud weeks 1 to 10 and 42 to 52.
Also look at "Daily Power Variations"
His words:
"The power fluctuates quite a lot with passing clouds, so I took readings at or near each hour over several days, and used the highest figure for each hour."
ie. The best case scenario.
What I'm saying is that Solar works but it is not a magic solution to energy supply problems as the output varies tremendously.
I've had days when only 0.3 Kwh has been generated. And others of 30Kwh.
Averages don't mean a thing really.
Drivel. It says "to replace wind turbines"
Calm down SFB. We'll be exporting wind energy/electricity when available. And importing hydro/electricity when it's not.
I think the interesting thing is, it comes to England not Scotland even though it's longer.
The article has been updated. I copied and pasted it word for word.

Must be special copper that allows electrons to flow both ways. It would make it so much easier to wire your house if you didn't have to watch which way round you ran the cable....
I can vouch for that. Harry, if you scroll down through the comments on the second page, there's one from two days ago from Insatiableplunderer that draws attention to the same gaffe:
"Ed Davey, the energy secretary, said the deal would give Britain access to Norwegian green hydropower at the flick of a switch, to drive wind turbines in the UK when the wind was not blowing ."
Well, it shows how brain dead journalists are. And some people here for not realising this.
