wasnt New Zealand also already far up beyond 90% renewable electricity a couple of years ago?

They are blessed with all three of hydro, geothermal, and wind.

  • Do we have many countries around where wind is not a thing?

    • And sun isn't uncommon. I was chatting with a person in Auckland, NZ. He said it was a cloudly day and he was producing much more solar power than he needed. His take: the panels are the cheapest part of the system so they just over-provisioned. We can all do that - it aint hard
