The original foundation was a combination of “base load” coal plants that operated 24 hours a day and large-scale hydropower. New sources of flexibility – the ability to keep supply and demand in balance over all time scales – are essential to enable this transition. Storage is now largely being provided by lithium-ion batteries.
