Winds, particularly at the altitude of wind turbines and more particularly offshore, do not turn off when the sun goes down.They don't go down on a daily basis, as the sun sets and the wind stops blowing...
In California and Montana, for example, seasonal variation matches the demand trends.They're also not subject to the vicissitudes of the seasons
Odd since your problem seems to be a dearth of actual science knowledge.Your dearth of intellectual curiosity is your problem.

Dear Concerned American, why do you think this post is fake news?Elsewhere in this forum, when asked what natural resources are being used to manufacture wind turbines, a poster replied that
"steel, quartz, coal, coke, wood, cement, boron, propene, hydrochloric acid" and others were natural resources being consumed.
Definition of Natural resource, any biological, mineral, or aesthetic asset afforded by nature without human intervention that can be used for some form of benefit, whether material (economic) or immaterial.

The encyclopedia goes on to say "What is considered a “resource” (or, for that matter, “natural”) has varied over time and from one society to another. Examples of assets that can be considered natural resources include forests, surface water and groundwater, and the fertile lands or the soil and minerals within them (rather than the crops that grow on them), as well as energy resources (such as petroleum, natural gas, and heated water [that is, geothermal energy]) contained within layers of rock."
From the provided list, then, hydrochloric acid, propene, boron, cement, coke, steel and even quartz are not natural resources but derived materials. A more accurate list specifically of natural resources used, vice what are the actual materials of which wind turbines are made, might include iron ore, bauxite (aluminum ore), copper ore, coal, sand, limestone and wood. None of these things are in short supply and the quantities used for each of them to manufacture wind turbines is a very small percentage of the total amounts extracted for all other purposes.
Because they don't have an icon for "this is a bald-faced ignorant lie." Better?Dear Concerned American, why do you think this post is fake news?
