Basically saying this is wrong.
Technically, base-load refers to the minimum amount of energy demand on a given day. All sources and studies I have are from Germany, but our parliament, their adjacent (technical) offices and the universities here have concluded that "base-load" as a concept is wrong with today's power generation and the way a power grid works. Today they usually talk about residual-load, turning the paradigm around.
Regardless of how it works, there are also renewable energies which can fulfil this classical "base-load" idea: Namely organic gas or geothermal power plants.

Why is Germany investing billions in NEW pipeline projects to ship natural gas from Russia for the next few decades? Germany says a lot of nice sweet-nothings, but their actions don't match their words.
- teraku 6y agoWell, first of all the parliament and the government are distinct entities. Government also is very corrupt and slowly changing. An advantage of gas pipelines is they can potentially be repurposed, for example to ship organic gas. Your statement says nothing about the feasibility, just politics.
