As per your edit, you should see how much more power you'd be getting in Arizona.
Also, wind doesn't blow all the time so are you gonna pumped-hydro or lithium-ion your way towards storage? Like, obviously the future of Germany at the moment is lignite..

and that’s exactly what I already addressed in my comment: In northern Germany it’s always windy. The more south you go, the less windy it is - however every place in Germany has enough wind to make wind turbines useful and profitable.
Unlike NPPs, which need water - and some counties in Germany already have massive drought problems, so wasting even more water by having NPPs just doesn’t work!

Ah, so only the place that has the most sunlight should build solar energy generators because everyone else is missing sunlight? That logic is completely and utterly wrong. As long as a place has - on average - enough sunlight to make solar energy useful, you should use as much of it as possible.
