We don't really have to speculate, since energy production data is available [0]. There certainly was a lot of energy produced by wind turbines. About the same as last week (also quite windy). But the "entire countries are working at half capacity" doesn't seem to be valid, at last I don't see a dip in power consumption.

- ZeroGravitas 7y agoNotably these graphs show that Germany was exporting quite a lot of power on the 10th, but was still burning gas, brown coal and hard coal in large quantities at the same time. Also nuclear, which I don't mind as much of the others, but still Germany has decided to phase it out so it seems Germany still needs more renewables.
