I’m saying the south would need at least 5x (you can fight me on the exact number) the turbines of the North to get to 100%.

This is due to

• higher energy consumption due to energy intensive industry
• lower wind turbine output due to less wind

Therefore it’s not worth it to build a ton of turbines in the south. Sure, we could have more in those locations where it’s worth it (dark spots on the map).

I grew up in a village near the Alps, one of the few with it’s own citizen-financed wind turbine. My parents invested. They’re lucky to get their money back because the return is so bad. Once the state money ran out it barely paid for itself
