Keep in mind that primary energy consumption is much more than just electricity production. Electricity is only 20-40% of the primary energy consumed in the world. So even if an area gets a day where they produced 100% of their ELECTRICITY from rebuildables, that is only 1/3 of their total ENERGY or POWER consumption. Much of the remaining 2/3 of primary energy use is very difficult to ever electrify.
.
I hope people can quit saying ENERGY when what they really mean is ELECTRICITY. There is a big difference.
