2009Nov8: Because of high winds across Spain, wind power supplied 53% of the country’s energy needs over a five-hour period on November 8. The majority of the power generated from the high winds was used immediately, 6% was stored, and 7.7% was exported to France, Portugal, and Morocco (Times Online).
