There's correlation over an area including Denmark, Germany and Great Britain: when it's windy in one of these places it tends to be windy in the others too. The takeaway is that the wind generation plant has to be supplemented by backup generation, and that that backup generation could quite happily do the whole job without the windmills. In other words, it's an expensive farce.
