Is 70 Percent Renewable Power Possible? Portugal Just Did It For 3 Months | ThinkProgress Pretty awesome, and a quick answer for the fools, idiots, and FUDsters who say that a grid cannot support alternative energy. In Portugal 27% of the load is supplied by wind. Benefits to the environment are obvious, but Portugal has also decreased oil imports 50%.
that's pretty cool, 37% hydro helps a lot. climate change might actually be good for wind? i'm surprised they don't have more solar, seems like the perfect climate.
