Short summary
The most important days for wind energy to make a large contribution to the electricity supply are when electricity demand is high. We examined the wind resource of southeast Australia on these days. We found that most hot high-demand days are influenced by a similar weather pattern, while cold high-demand days can be cold, wet, and windy or associated with widespread light winds. These results are important when considering the types of weather that could influence future wind energy.
