It isn't funny to be talking of "Power per day". This is a meaningless unit. I have to assume that you meant "kW-hrs per day" ? The "picture" that this report gives, is, I feel, all too valid, and very worrying. I point-out to "DECC" - for instance - that "windfarms" don't, in fact, help in their current form since they take more energy to create that they return in their expectable lifespan, and that it IS - in fact - quite possible to get a self-sustaining quantity of energy from a sensible design of Turbine-Alternator Device - but they appear to be still investing at the fraction of 1% p.a. of "modern windfarms". Orders have been halved for a place in Spain, I see, so there is a spark of hope there. Please get your energy and power units sorted-out. It isn’t funny to be talking of “Power per day”.
