Fascinating!
The data shows pretty clearly that combined-cycle gas turbines are still THE type of power stations that are used to balance the supply and demand, but solar is already helping a lot during the day.
French data shows gas power stations produce up to 9GW (~13%), and without solar they would be used to produce 12.5GW (~19%).
