> Certainly with more and more power coming from renewables that can’t be switched on or off at will, that’s a gain for all.
Just today there was a story in the news here in Norway how the windmills in Sweden is causing a massive price disparity between north and south of Norway, due to lack of transmission capability.
These days the price disparity can be over 50%, and Sweden is planning to massively expand their windmill generation up north.
Yeah, our "north-south" infrastructure is behind and it will take about 20 years to fully resolve, sorry it impacts you Norway!

Sweden has an interesting problem where we want to build more wind power, but it can only really be done in the north at scale, but then the transmission capacity down south is missing, and that's where all the consumers are!
