   Unless battery storage is improved and expanded exponentially, that   
   would only work with a world-wide grid. Wind power is not predictable or   
   reliable, and in winter when you most need it you can get cols when no   
   wind blows for days. So you have a world-wide grid to link vast solar   
   arrays on both sides of the globe to ensure that power is available   
   everywhere day and night.   
      
   It would be similar to the gas pipeline "grid" we have at present in   
   Europe. That's working well with Russian gas, isn't it?...
