41. Those are baseless claims

You are an anonymous voice on the internet. You are making assertions and claims that are not verified or verifiable as a means of arguing against an expert whose credentials we not only can, but have verified.

Do you grasp the problem?

That feeds interpretation of your assertions regarding the nature of supposed shortcomings in the paper under discussion; which are STILL not germane to the topic of the research itself. Before that paper, it would be common for the entrenched energy interests to attack renewable energy with the claim that it isn't possible to meet demand 24/7 with variable sources of generation. Now, however, because of this and several other detailed analysis comparing real world demand with knowln performance characteristics of renewable technologies that no longer has any legitimacy.

Now here you are (for the second time) claiming that the paper is no good because it doesn't address stabilizing the grid on a second by second basis.

You'll just have to forgive me for not considering your input credible.
