Not sure this is good. Would rather see micro grids or indiividual units.off the grid.
This is too costly to build and maintain.
Another grid,
Thank you

Sal,

I agree with you. I would prefer to see distributed collectively intelligent grids with local production of energy. However, wind farms may have a role to play.
