Generally: Renewables and storage solve somewhere high in the 90s percent.
Then throw some gas turbines on it. Low CAPEX high OPEX. Just like we’ve done for the past decades with the previous ”base load and peaking” paradigm.
Those gas turbines will be a minuscule part of the total energy supply.
When it finally becomes the most pressing issue the gas turbines can trivially be fueled by green hydrogen, green hydrogen derivatives, biofuels or biogas from collecting food waste. If they are still needed.
Lets wait and see what aviation and shipping settles on before attempting to solve a future issue today.
