I'd thought this talking point had been retired, great to see it out and about in the wild again after so many years.
I'd love to see your source for this opinion. What does wind cost when someone who understands how "power generation, distribution and consumption works" does the sums?
You're clearly not talking about
* National Grid
* Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy
* Department of Energy
* IRENA
* Internation Energy Agency
etc. etc. who've all been publishing very in-depth reports on this for the last decade or so and are firmly with the general consensus.
