Thank you very much for your video, I think the following remarks from the comments are worth mentioning 1. nature conservation/bird protection and wind power use can be harmonised if the wind turbine is switched off at certain times (migration, breeding etc.) when birds are particularly endangered. 2 Wind power use almost always implies similarly high costs for energy storage and transmission as for the wind turbine itself. 3. the land consumption per kwh generated is about 10 times higher than for photovoltaics/solar thermal energy and 100 to 1000 times higher compared to other power plants. 4. only stationary use is considered, never "mobile" use, e.g. on ships (sails, rotors). 5. salt water remains highly corrosive and whether offshore plants will ever be economically viable will be shown by the actual operating time. 6. the effectiveness of a wind turbine is calculated from the duration and speed of the wind (m/sec), whereby the energy content increases to the 3rd power. As an auxiliary formula one can say that per m² of rotor surface, e.g. at a wind speed of 4 m/sec, approx. one tenth of the calculated figure can be taken from the wind as watts, i.e. approx. 6.4 watts(electrical). For the exact calculation, see "Betz's Law". 7.What the Sahara is for solar power, the "Roaring Forties" are for wind power. This refers to the zone between 40 and 50 degrees south latitude where strong westerly winds permanently prevail. 8.Anyone can build a small wind turbine themselves for their private energy needs!

@@crinolynneendymion8755 you know India has as much population as China (will have more from next year), and I do not see them crushing all. You also know that when you produce things what is important is the GDP not the population, and China GDP is still lower than USA, still they invest more and build more renewable than USA… so China still having a lot of poor people still find the money to invest more in renewable than USA which is a very rich country. China has been crushed for 200 years when Europe did take of with industrial and scientific Revolution. Since 40 years China work hard to come back to their previous level (1st worldwide economic power for maybe 2-4000 years). And for science now China is progressing as crazy,10-15 years ago China was not much, now they are the country with the most new patent, their scientific publication is also exploding, and they are at the forefront in a few technology.

Great fantastic, our knowledge has increased even more by hearing these words of yours And I also work at wind Energy and talk about wind energy parts and make and upload videos because I also use this product.
Interesting although what might be a “ more interesting “ statistic is what percentage of their total electrical generation per year was met by wind power.
germany is 16%...thats when the wind is blowing ,which is essential ,as we in new zealand found out last month when we had an unexpected cold snap and people selfishly wanted to heat their houses...so like germany we decided to use our coal fired turbines,,,unfortunately ,the dirty coal we import from indonesia was not as acceptable to our ''green ''govt as our high grade coal from our coal mines.so the generator needs more servicing and maintenance and were shut down for that reason...such is what happens when you have a WEF member as your prime minister
@@bobbobbly7900 In 2021 Germany had 21,5% and in 2020 it was 25,2% through Wind power, don't know where you got your 16% from. And this percentage is an AVERAGE value of the whole year, not just when the wind is blowing, so it can be 50% depending on the situation. To prevent outages it is important to have multiple green energy sources (e.g. wind and solar complement each other well) and a good energy storage infrastructure.
@@prifon2896 if it's 25 % why is Germany in a energy crisis because Putin won't sell gas the energy grid replies on fossil fuels always has always will be wind and solar is useless and a scam dose more damage to the environment then coal and gas just look into how they mine the precious metals used in batteries and solar panels and wind turbine bladesl it's a scorched earth approach turn everything into a dead zone and the reason its not visible or talked about is because it's all mined from the sea bed killing patches of ocean basically for ever and is causing extinctions in rare sea animals
@@blumie006 Holy... I had a stroke reading your comment... Please use punctuation next time... It also seems like your comment disappeard, maybe it's better so no one has to read that nonsense pile of text, but i'll answer anyway: You really need to learn the difference between energy and electricity... But let me educate you: Energy includes everything that uses energy, e.g. heating, cars, electricity, industrial production etc. but "electricity" is a subcategory of "energy". Germany does NOT rely on gas for their electricity grid, but energy as a whole is a different topic, because their industry uses a lot of gas for manufacturing. Heating is also mainly done by gas but it's all in a process of change right now due to Putlers murdering. Germany even produces too much green energy, so their windmills have to be temporarely shut down and solarfarms have to be taken off the grid, the solution would be a good energy storage infrastructure like hydrogen. You seem to be a gullible 10 year old kid who watched RT and believed everything right away without research... If you say green energy is harmful, then look at the CO2 figures... (this includes manufactoring etc. and the metals are not "precious") coal: 820 gCO2eq/kWh gas: 490 gCO2eq/kWh solar: 45 gCO2eq/kWh wind: 11 gCO2eq/kWh If we don't stop polluting, the whole earth would be inhabitable, so why do you care about some fishes that would die anyway if we don't change our energy system? Your logic is flawed.
You would expect that Germany wouldn't be so much dependent on Russian natural gas, since they produce so much electricity from renewable sources. The amount produced only by wind power is amazing... Or isn't it?
Much of the wind power in Germany is produced when it’s not needed, and often the power is needed but there’s no wind. Hence Germany suffers the most expensive electricity bills in the world while being the largest CO2 emitter in the EU.
@@buellterrier3596 That is right. We really need a long term storage for renewable energy. The interconnections in the European grid have already been improved. The next thing will be producing hydrogen for long term storage. Otherwise a lot of excess energy is wasted.
Scotland is an exporter of wind generated power, and currently produces roughly 120% of its power requirement from wind and hydro Edit, Scotland and Denmark get the most wind in Europe
@Eliot Thexton no, Scotland has 1/4 of all Europes wind. In the Hebrides and parts of the west coast the roofs have to be weighted down. That’s how windy it is
@Eliot Thexton Don’t Google Scottish exports, because the Brits have tapped in with their power lines so they don’t count as Scottish. Same as the oil pipelines. Same as the whisky revenues, that leave from Hull, so this massive money maker is in fact English 🙄
@@McConnachy Its recently been in the news that the Scottish 25% was a complete lie, and the SNP had to apologise. Scotland has 4% of Europe's wind potential.
@@thefowlyetti2 😂 aye okay. 4% Visit Scotland see for yourself. And the clues are coastal and the huge amount of wind farms. With a huge amount under development. They are even building new roads in the Highlands to put them up, so must be a waste of cash right? But hey, you can alway place them on Englands green and pleasant land and see how much you produce
We've passed the point where renewable energies are now cheaper and more efficient than fossil fuels. The world *will* one day get most, if not all of its energy from non-fossil fuel sources; that I can tell you for sure. But how fast we make that happen depends on how fast our leaders act. Imagine the energy potential of China; solar panels up north in the deserts, hydropower from the many rivers that flood annually in Central China, and off-shore wind turbines..
TL;DR: Renewables are not cheaper than fossil fuels. When you add the cost of storage systems or the cost of no storage systems, renewables are not cheaper (except maybe hydro power, when you have the landscape for it). We are not living in a perfect world, where the cheapest solution is also the environmentally best solution. There are a lot of "great" statistics, that show how cheap renewables are. But they do not consider, that there are not the storage systems and that this is why renewables are pretty cheap for specific times (when there is too much renewable energy) and at other times there are no renewables at all and you have to use fossil fuels. Building wind turbines and maintaining fossil fuel power plants at the same time is not a cheap solution and you can see this by looking at the rising energy costs in Germany of the past 20 years. What is a cheaper solution? Coal is bad for the environment, but probably the cheapest energy source. What is a cheaper solution without producing CO2? Nuclear power is cheap, if you already build the power plants. But you have to deal with other problems (radioactive waste, possible accidents).
You can't compare manufacturing solar panels and giant wind turbines and putting the in oceans and deserts with liquid and dense energy coming out of the ground, yet.

Per capita you are privileging small countries since in big countries you literally don't yet enough factories in the world to have the same % as Denmark. Scale matters In other words, since wind power most stuff is produced locally, you are looking at how much they are being able to scale
Whether it is a large or a small country. it doesn't make any difference. That's what the country's. Prioritize that makes the difference. And Denmark prioritizes wind energy. I see it this way. Denmark was one of the first countries. Windmills have been made. And if you look at. Relation to Denmark's size and population. If they are still the leader in this kind of energy, Denmark is the leading country. En 1973. Was there an energy crisis. And there. Denmark decided that they will be a leader in. Energy efficiency. So that's why Denmark. Where they are today Denmark is the country where their modern windmills come from. If you see per capita. Denmark has always been the leading country for almost 50 years with wind energy. About 51%. Of Denmark's electricity consumption comes from wind turbines. 2 of the world's largest wind turbine manufacturers. Have their roots in Denmark.
@@kastrup2dk does not matter how much you prioritize, there is not enough factories in the world to power billions with it supply problems exist. you may don't understand what this means because never lived in a huge country

Same with Solar Power Plants, often buried under Snow here for 6 Months each Year. It is questionable that Solar is beneficial above 45 Degrees Latitude except for special Applications such as McMurdo Sound Antarctica Station. Above 45 Degrees Latitude, Solar Energy is poor about 6 Months of the year as measured in Watts per Square Meter of Solar Radiation. Technology Applied... We must get better applying the Technology. Natural Gas is the best here. Many small Natural Gas Generation Plants here are Remote Controlled by Computer turning on and off as needed. AKA, Smart Grid. Pleantyful Inexpensive Gas from our neighbors in Canada and North Dakota. Balanced Cost Benefit.. Natural Gas is highly reliable, on an end to end Carbon Lifecycle Cost even compared to Hydro when things like Carbon emitted from Curing Concrete used to build Dams are factored along with Maintenance such as Dredging tallied into Ecology and financials. Opportunity Conclusion... We have much opportunity to improve by Applying Technology where it makes sense based on Variable Local Conditions.

@@robipindric7654 If they shut them off during Bird Migrations I don't have an issue with them other than they are wasteful and polluting compared to Natural Gas Electric in my Area. They are killing Endangered Bird Species here during Migration Time.
...just wonder if its really the right way to go? you can only generate electricity when the wind blows or sometimes blows too hard and can topple one of these turbines over with ease in an Atlantic storm as in the west coast of Scotland about 5 years ago, surely better to invest in tidal wave power especially at estuaries with guaranteed power generation?
Moreover, offshore wind turbines are a very expensive business. We all know how corrosive the salty seawater is. These wind turbines are therefore subject to extensive maintenance and only accessible by (fossil-powered ship?). The whole picture is all too often neglected? That's how it usually goes with ideologies.
Tidal power generation gets flooded with salt and other shit from the ocean. They would be super maintenance intensive as you'd have to pull them out every couple weeks.

6. the effectiveness of a wind turbine is calculated from the duration and speed of the wind (m/sec), whereby the energy content increases to the 3rd power.
As an auxiliary formula one can say that per m² of rotor surface, e.g. at a wind speed of 4 m/sec, approx. one tenth of the calculated figure can be taken from the wind as watts, i.e. approx. 6.4 watts(electrical). For the exact calculation, see "Betz's Law".
7.What the Sahara is for solar power, the "Roaring Forties" are for wind power. This refers to the zone between 40 and 50 degrees south latitude where strong westerly winds permanently prevail.
8.Anyone can build a small wind turbine themselves for their private energy needs!
As a Dutch person I'm *blown away* (pun intended) by the fact that such a wealthy and windy country was knocked down the list so thoroughly. But then again... we are quite a small country.
As an Irish person, I'm disappointed we dropped out at 2002 ,we were doing so well, what happened?, in fairness we are planning a number of offshore projects
The Netherlands might climb again in the coming years, since a lot of new offshore wind energy projects will be completed in the coming years.
Because you are not so dump as we Germans. Looks good on paper, but in reality the wind never blows.
@@abeeceedee599 It is a well established fact, that absolute figure comparisons always are led by big countries. Production normalized to population, area or consumption would be more compareable.

Great video! Would love to see an iteration with solar power
In all these videos it is funny to see how China was low… and how fast they catch up before crushing everyone.
Ah yes, the famous China crushing everyone meme. Well China has 1 billion of a world population of 8 billion; not bad for a tiny minority. Btw, just exactly what innovation/scientific advance has China brought to the world in the last 100 years. Just exactly what contribution to human wellbeing? What contribution has that 12% of world's population made? Compared with such tiny nations like Italy and Belgium. How long will we have to wait I wonder.
@@crinolynneendymion8755 you know India has as much population as China (will have more from next year), and I do not see them crushing all.
You also know that when you produce things what is important is the GDP not the population, and China GDP is still lower than USA, still they invest more and build more renewable than USA… so China still having a lot of poor people still find the money to invest more in renewable than USA which is a very rich country.
China has been crushed for 200 years when Europe did take of with industrial and scientific Revolution. Since 40 years China work hard to come back to their previous level (1st worldwide economic power for maybe 2-4000 years).
And for science now China is progressing as crazy,10-15 years ago China was not much, now they are the country with the most new patent, their scientific publication is also exploding, and they are at the forefront in a few technology.
If it was only a question of population then Muslim country will bring lot of technology… but the Muslim country represent 25% of the world population and do 0.1% of the science… while africa put together start to be quite numerous… and do shit. India not much.
And yes, in most of these video, about various subjects, you see China being ultra low and exploding. Even with big population it is a major success, no country did develop that fast in the past, and this development come from hard work of the population with good economic policy from the gov, and stability.

Great fantastic, our knowledge has increased even more by hearing these words of yours And I also work at wind Energy and talk about wind energy parts and make and upload videos because I also use this product.
Interesting although what might be a “ more interesting “ statistic is what percentage of their total electrical generation per year was met by wind power.
germany is 16%...thats when the wind is blowing ,which is essential ,as we in new zealand found out last month when we had an unexpected cold snap and people selfishly wanted to heat their houses...so like germany we decided to use our coal fired turbines,,,unfortunately ,the dirty coal we import from indonesia was not as acceptable to our ''green ''govt as our high grade coal from our coal mines.so the generator needs more servicing and maintenance and were shut down for that reason...such is what happens when you have a WEF member as your prime minister
@@bobbobbly7900 In 2021 Germany had 21,5% and in 2020 it was 25,2% through Wind power, don't know where you got your 16% from. And this percentage is an AVERAGE value of the whole year, not just when the wind is blowing, so it can be 50% depending on the situation.
To prevent outages it is important to have multiple green energy sources (e.g. wind and solar complement each other well) and a good energy storage infrastructure.
2% green energy is a scam
@@prifon2896 if it's 25 % why is Germany in a energy crisis because Putin won't sell gas the energy grid replies on fossil fuels always has always will be wind and solar is useless and a scam dose more damage to the environment then coal and gas just look into how they mine the precious metals used in batteries and solar panels and wind turbine bladesl it's a scorched earth approach turn everything into a dead zone and the reason its not visible or talked about is because it's all mined from the sea bed killing patches of ocean basically for ever and is causing extinctions in rare sea animals
@@blumie006 Holy... I had a stroke reading your comment... Please use punctuation next time... It also seems like your comment disappeard, maybe it's better so no one has to read that nonsense pile of text, but i'll answer anyway:
You really need to learn the difference between energy and electricity... But let me educate you: Energy includes everything that uses energy, e.g. heating, cars, electricity, industrial production etc. but "electricity" is a subcategory of "energy".
Germany does NOT rely on gas for their electricity grid, but energy as a whole is a different topic, because their industry uses a lot of gas for manufacturing. Heating is also mainly done by gas but it's all in a process of change right now due to Putlers murdering.
Germany even produces too much green energy, so their windmills have to be temporarely shut down and solarfarms have to be taken off the grid, the solution would be a good energy storage infrastructure like hydrogen.
You seem to be a gullible 10 year old kid who watched RT and believed everything right away without research... If you say green energy is harmful, then look at the CO2 figures... (this includes manufactoring etc. and the metals are not "precious")
coal: 820 gCO2eq/kWh
gas: 490 gCO2eq/kWh
solar: 45 gCO2eq/kWh
wind: 11 gCO2eq/kWh
If we don't stop polluting, the whole earth would be inhabitable, so why do you care about some fishes that would die anyway if we don't change our energy system? Your logic is flawed.
Almost Great!
Good choice to change the music whenever a new country get to number 1.
You would expect that Germany wouldn't be so much dependent on Russian natural gas, since they produce so much electricity from renewable sources. The amount produced only by wind power is amazing... Or isn't it?
Much of the wind power in Germany is produced when it’s not needed, and often the power is needed but there’s no wind. Hence Germany suffers the most expensive electricity bills in the world while being the largest CO2 emitter in the EU.
@@buellterrier3596 bullshit!
natural gas is not very important for electric energy in germany. only round about 15%.
@@buellterrier3596 That is right. We really need a long term storage for renewable energy. The interconnections in the European grid have already been improved. The next thing will be producing hydrogen for long term storage. Otherwise a lot of excess energy is wasted.
40% of consumed energy in germany is renewable energy, mostly wind. Germany is dependent on the gas because its 15% of the consumed energy.

Scotland is an exporter of wind generated power, and currently produces roughly 120% of its power requirement from wind and hydro
Edit, Scotland and Denmark get the most wind in Europe
@Eliot Thexton no, Scotland has 1/4 of all Europes wind. In the Hebrides and parts of the west coast the roofs have to be weighted down. That’s how windy it is
@Eliot Thexton Don’t Google Scottish exports, because the Brits have tapped in with their power lines so they don’t count as Scottish. Same as the oil pipelines. Same as the whisky revenues, that leave from Hull, so this massive money maker is in fact English 🙄
@@McConnachy Its recently been in the news that the Scottish 25% was a complete lie, and the SNP had to apologise. Scotland has 4% of Europe's wind potential.
@@thefowlyetti2 😂 aye okay. 4%
Visit Scotland see for yourself. And the clues are coastal and the huge amount of wind farms. With a huge amount under development. They are even building new roads in the Highlands to put them up, so must be a waste of cash right? But hey, you can alway place them on Englands green and pleasant land and see how much you produce
We've passed the point where renewable energies are now cheaper and more efficient than fossil fuels. The world *will* one day get most, if not all of its energy from non-fossil fuel sources; that I can tell you for sure. But how fast we make that happen depends on how fast our leaders act. Imagine the energy potential of China; solar panels up north in the deserts, hydropower from the many rivers that flood annually in Central China, and off-shore wind turbines..
No, because prices about renewables are fake.
TL;DR: Renewables are not cheaper than fossil fuels.
When you add the cost of storage systems or the cost of no storage systems, renewables are not cheaper (except maybe hydro power, when you have the landscape for it). We are not living in a perfect world, where the cheapest solution is also the environmentally best solution. There are a lot of "great" statistics, that show how cheap renewables are. But they do not consider, that there are not the storage systems and that this is why renewables are pretty cheap for specific times (when there is too much renewable energy) and at other times there are no renewables at all and you have to use fossil fuels. Building wind turbines and maintaining fossil fuel power plants at the same time is not a cheap solution and you can see this by looking at the rising energy costs in Germany of the past 20 years.
What is a cheaper solution? Coal is bad for the environment, but probably the cheapest energy source.
What is a cheaper solution without producing CO2? Nuclear power is cheap, if you already build the power plants. But you have to deal with other problems (radioactive waste, possible accidents).
Except it's not.
Only nuclear is cheaper over its lifespan, yet the media and “environmentalist” movement villifies it
You can't compare manufacturing solar panels and giant wind turbines and putting the in oceans and deserts with liquid and dense energy coming out of the ground, yet.

Per capita you are privileging small countries since in big countries you literally don't yet enough factories in the world to have the same % as Denmark.
Scale matters
In other words, since wind power most stuff is produced locally, you are looking at how much they are being able to scale
Whether it is a large or a small country. it doesn't make any difference. That's what the country's. Prioritize that makes the difference.
And Denmark prioritizes wind energy.
I see it this way. Denmark was one of the first countries. Windmills have been made. And if you look at. Relation to Denmark's size and population. If they are still the leader in this kind of energy, Denmark is the leading country.
En 1973. Was there an energy crisis. And there. Denmark decided that they will be a leader in. Energy efficiency. So that's why Denmark. Where they are today
Denmark is the country where their modern windmills come from.
If you see per capita. Denmark has always been the leading country for almost 50 years with wind energy.
About 51%. Of Denmark's electricity consumption comes from wind turbines.

@@jayrudo6280 You are correct, that’s a possibility, perhaps in the future. But At present, even the most advanced and biggest battery storage facility in the world (in California), can power Germany for only 30 seconds!
@@buellterrier3596 pump water up when you don’t need power and release the hydroelectric power when you do would be the best solution. Could also export and import energy from N. Africa. Alternatively, wave or tidal power is more consistent.
Berlin has a new heat storage tower for their heating network which is fed by unneeded electricity.
@@TheBooban In fact a lot of hydro-electric generation facilities are doing this, however it is not feasible for Germany’s landscape, which is mostly flat. There are dams in the south but not to the extent where power can be generated at large (100+MW) scale. For that we would have to dam the Alps and flood most of Austria.

Wind Generators are not a good solution in my area because Wind is intermittent.
I'm trying to get Wind Generators on the Mississippi Flyway turned off one week in Spring and Fall during peak Bird Migration Time because I have seen Big piles of Dead Birds including Endangered Species such as Lake Superior Piping Plover. Only 200 left on Earth. Hummingbird has high mortality.
We need to improve how this Technology is Applied by plugging Lessons Learned into Cost Benefit Analysis.
Latitude Matters...
Same with Solar Power Plants, often buried under Snow here for 6 Months each Year.
It is questionable that Solar is beneficial above 45 Degrees Latitude except for special Applications such as McMurdo Sound Antarctica Station.
Above 45 Degrees Latitude, Solar Energy is poor about 6 Months of the year as measured in Watts per Square Meter of Solar Radiation.
Technology Applied...
We must get better applying the Technology.
Natural Gas is the best here. Many small Natural Gas Generation Plants here are Remote Controlled by Computer turning on and off as needed. AKA, Smart Grid.
Pleantyful Inexpensive Gas from our neighbors in Canada and North Dakota.
Balanced Cost Benefit..
Natural Gas is highly reliable, on an end to end Carbon Lifecycle Cost even compared to Hydro when things like Carbon emitted from Curing Concrete used to build Dams are factored along with Maintenance such as Dredging tallied into Ecology and financials.
Opportunity Conclusion...
We have much opportunity to improve by Applying Technology where it makes sense based on Variable Local Conditions. Using Lessons Learned and End to End Lifecycle Carbon, Environment and Financial Cost Benefit Analysis.

In the end: 🇨🇳 :|
No offense intended
...just wonder if its really the right way to go? you can only generate electricity when the wind blows or sometimes blows too hard and can topple one of these turbines over with ease in an Atlantic storm as in the west coast of Scotland about 5 years ago, surely better to invest in tidal wave power especially at estuaries with guaranteed power generation?
Moreover, offshore wind turbines are a very expensive business.
We all know how corrosive the salty seawater is.
These wind turbines are therefore subject to extensive maintenance and only accessible by (fossil-powered ship?).
The whole picture is all too often neglected?
That's how it usually goes with ideologies.
Tidal power generation gets flooded with salt and other shit from the ocean.
They would be super maintenance intensive as you'd have to pull them out every couple weeks.
