QUIZ: How many wind turbines would we need to get rid of the whole thermal power?
Some simple maths will be enough to calculate the amount of TWh from Thermal power plants that we will need to replace with Wind Turbines, assuming their load factor and an utility-scale energy storage (even if technology does not exist yet).
QUIZ: How many wind turbines would we need to get rid of the whole thermal power?
ENERGY TRANSITION KNOWLEDGE SERIES. How many NEW wind turbines would we need to replace the WHOLE thermal power today? Currently, there are 700.000 wind turbines on a global basis, including on-shore and off-shore. If we had the money, the permits, the place, an infinite and inmediate capacity to manufacture as many wind turbines as we want, how many should we install to replace all the thermal power electricity generated globally today?
