Capacity factor of wind power realized values vs. estimates
TL;DR: The capacity factor of wind power measuring the average energy delivered has been assumed in the 30-35% range of the name plate capacity for two decades now, yet, the mean realized value for Europe over the last five years is below 21%; accordingly private cost is two-third higher and the reduction of carbon emissions is 40% less than previously expected.
