Maybe have the batteries adjacent to the cables in the above setup if the battery is destroyed then the cable is effectively broken so no power from the turbine. The charge capacity is 600 watt days. If there is surplus power the battery will recharge but only at 50 efficiency half the energy is lost.

This is not optimal as while a solar eclipse the batteries could completely run empty. You will need batteries to store power if you re using unstable power supplies such as wind or solar power.
