This is an interview with Martin Agerup of CEPOS and Hugh Sharman of Incoteco discussing Denmark's experience with wind energy. Denmark produces the equivalent of 20% of their electricity from wind, but they must export most of it to neighboring countries. Often this electricity is sold for much less than it costs to produce it, and the Danish taxpayer pays the difference.
To learn the details of Denmark's wind energy experiment, read Agerup and Sharman's new study "Wind Energy: The Case of Denmark," available for PDF download here: http://tinyurl.com/mdfsju.

@oifex That is not an argument. That is simply an ad hominem attack. Would be nice if there would some actual counter arguments to this.

@Jdonovanford This answer is that we can. This guy has been revealed as being a fraud, he refuses to reveal who did the calculations, and he has taken a lot of rightly deserved flak.

Why can't Denmark use 100% the wind energy they produce? I don't get it!

Wikipedia says about the "institute for energy research":
"When the Institute released studies opposed to higher standards of fuel-efficiency in the nation's automotive fleets, the Los Angeles Times referred to it as "a Washington-based hotbed of global warming denial supported by oil and coal interests".[6]"

Great videos. I love your institute; way to go at attacking the Green-Industrial complex.
