Where? Searching for 'peak' returns no results and going through the results for 'gas' doesn't turn up anything about peaker plants for nuclear.

- cycomanic 4y agoI just cited the section in my post. US nuclear plants can not follow load at all, some European ones have some ability, but it's generally not enough. If you compare France and Germany gas portion of the overall electricity production is quite similar (it's a bit tricky to compare, Germany produced 12% and France 7% but in different years, France gas accounts to 10% of their installed capacity)
