Both maximum and minimum load balancing can then be subtracted to evaluate the overall amount of conventional generation that is required to operate discontinuously during the day on the network (mid-peak to peak load). It is an indication of how much conventional power generation must be kept on the grid, despite the penetration of renewable energies, in order to maintain electricity supply at all times, and in the absence of large storage technology available. It is presented in absolute value as well as a percentage of the maximum load (Fig. 4.8). California stands out as being extremely impacted by the penetration of renewable energies. There, the amount of mid-peak to peak load generation almost doubles. From an average of 30% of the maximum load, the volume of required intermittent conventional generation jumps to almost 50% of maximum load. This is mainly due to the significant evolution of solar output during the day, while wind is more constant (in our model). This difference is a major disruption on the power market as traditional generation needs to remain available to cope with the decrease of renewable output on the grid. In other regions, the power generation mix (in particular the renewable mix) makes this evolution less disruptive.
