If those both are true, that’d mean the green energy has a really abysmal utilization factor (power generated to installed capacity ratio). I think it’d imply a utilization factor of 0.038. I thought it was closer to 0.37 for wind and 0.25 for solar. Maybe there’s a difference in what each is counting as renewable? Or how they’re continuing non renewable production capacity?

92.5x/7.5=32/67, x=0.038
