Solar and Wind Energy Farms Rely on Thermal Power Plants

Solar and wind energy farms rely on thermal power plants to operate in a few ways:
1. Backup power: Solar and wind power are considered intermittent energy sources because the amount of electricity generated depends on weather conditions. When the sun is not shining or the wind is not blowing, thermal power plants can provide backup power to ensure a steady supply of electricity to the grid.
2. Grid stabilization: Solar and wind power can cause fluctuations in the electrical grid due to their intermittent nature. Thermal power plants can help to stabilize the grid by quickly adjusting their output to match changes in demand.
3. Peaker power: Thermal power plants are often used to provide "peaker power" which is additional power during periods of high demand. This power is used to meet peak loads and to ensure reliability of the grid.
It's worth mentioning that for the integration of renewable energy sources into the grid, it's necessary to have a flexible and robust electricity system, which includes a mix of different energy sources and technologies, including thermal power plants, energy storage, and transmission and distribution infrastructure.
In summary, solar and wind energy farms rely on thermal power plants to provide backup power, stabilize the grid, and provide peaker power, to ensure a steady and reliable supply of electricity to the grid.
