Okay, I'm confused, Harry. I think you said in your last sentence that wind farms could supply a portion of the total power needed. If wind farms didn't exist, where would that peaking power have come from if not gas and coal plants? My only point is that if the power from wind farms is not entirely wasted, then it must be providing useful power to the grid which was once provided by gas and coal plants. Therefore, the total fraction of the power provided by gas and coal plants is smaller. No?
