Wind is often characterized as an unreliable power source because 'when the wind dies, so goes the power.' This is easily countered by explaining that wind does not blow uniformly across a geographic region in which multiple wind farms are connected to the same grid, and by the corollary thought - the height at which wind velocity has historically been recorded does not always represent the heights at which wind turbines do their work. However, scientific investigation, not logical debate, is needed if renewable power is to become a common source of electricity. Good thing, then, that the parallel issue for regionally dispersed s...
