They only rotate thiers during low winds to ensure they can respond faster to varying wind conditions  :y (new job has a lot of contact with this industry and I am running a wave power research project)  :y
NGC have reduced their predicted load factor from wind from 30 to 25%
The latest off-shaw turbines can feather their blades with a view to providing some (extremely limited) frequency response.

This December, record low temperatures were seen and at the same time, the wind.... where were you? (Something like 36000MWe from coal, 20MWe wind)
