    Thanks Rob.

    Why does it show separate values for new wind and new solar from installed wind and solar ?

    Looking at the charts below it is pretty easy to see how storage could offset power imports into SA . Whether that is practical is another thing of course.

    I'd be really interested to know whether there is a true data set available of curtailment and see that in a chart.

    It is interesting to see on the yearly chart how much of SA's power comes from wind. If you look at a yearly chart of other states it tells a vastly different story.

    There's a lot to be done before renewables can make a significant impact.
