@sbi one minor quibble. You use "fossil fuel" as a synonym for all fuels. Excess electricity can be used to create synthetic liquid or gaseous fuels for long term storage and feeding turbines.

@SkipHuffman Yeah, this could be done. ATM, these are mostly concepts, though. The amount of "green hydrogen" available right now it nothing to write home about. It's a future thing. Hopefully. Primary control with batteries can be done *now*, allows a much higher renewable penetration in existing grids, and significantly reduces the carbon footprint of energy production.
