 I don't know why you are talking of that in this Linux group, but for your information, we have an island that goes with renewable energy for months, not touching the fueled generators.

But it still touches the fuelled generators.
And its a very small island, and it uses pumped storage because it has hills,
Try that in Holland...
And it isn't as green as you think. Dig deeper into the actual statistics
"The longest it’s powered up the whole island is 25 consecutive days, before the back-up diesel engine had to step in"
That is not 'for months'.
