Wind power actually peaks at night in most places, and is also cheaper than solar. Overnight EV charging & wind power is a good pairing.

I believe most wind power curtailment today happens overnight.

Wind power is also great for massacring wildlife (bats and birds in particular).

It is also great at increasing maintenance costs and causing blackout due to equipment failure.
