    You need to be on pills.

    Base load is the amount of charge that you need in the system to deal with just basic usage. This includes powering your computer so you can post incoherent rents on the internet. Something I assume you think is very important.

    Without base load when it’s night and not windy all the power goes out, I assume you would think that was inconvenient even though you are not a mega corporation.

    Now rather than trying to deflect answer the question how do we supply fundamental power when the sources are renewable are not operating and don’t say we can store it in batteries because we can’t not at that capacity.

      That’s not completely wrong but in parts. I can easily buffer solar energy to cover 80% of my energy needs. You have to understand that most of the base load isn’t “our” power consumption. It’s mostly commercial.

      And again. Google training LLMs is not Base-Load and nether deflection. It’s the subject of the Article!
