For example, in windy weather, the prices of renewable energy are low, and therefore, its financial benefit remains low, i.e., wind power becomes a less lucrative investment option. This has led to the construction of batteries next to the turbines, which enables the energy to be discharged into the grid more evenly.

However wind energy generation is closely looked at by many governments, especially in Africa, for its permanent consistency in the continent which should result in high profitability for the embedded countries due to low cost and sustainability. For example, Denmark receives over 50% of its electricity from the wind farms.
