Fossil - fueled peaking / backup plants will produce little CO2 output as long as their duty cycle is small, and their other pollutants become more tolerable too.

However, you don't want to argue for a rational solution — i.e. cheap nuclear power (which also happens to be 10 to 100 times safer than our currently accepted main source of electricity generation, fossil fuel) and also happens to be a near zero emission technology (in fact much lower than renewables given they need fossil fuel backup, and given solar needs about 10 times as much material per TWh on an LCA basis).

Long lines formed at gas stations as people sought fuel to power backup generators.

Fossil fuel plant needs to transition into the role of backup to low emissions generation and the market emergent de-facto carbon price increasing intermittency brings to a fossil fuel dominated grid needs to be used intelligently as the incentive it is to drive time shifting of demand, efficiency and investment in emerging storage technologies.

Instead of keeping the taxpayers» money, why not distribute it in order to fund micro generation projects that will actually make a difference, rather than these massive developments that rely on fossil fuel plant to be constantly spinning as a backup.

But a renewable energy option that might be a «right fit» for say New England (not requiring building new fossil fuel backup units as the Wolfpack constantly touts as always necessary) may not be a «right fit» in Texas.

Because of the variable, unpredictable, and uncontrollable nature of wind production, backup fossil - fuelled generation has to be run simultaneously to stabilize the grid on an increasing scale as more wind production is added.

As well as the extra fossil fuel based energy plants required to backup wind and solar installations, keep in mind the additional CO2 produced and mining required to manufacture, transport and maintain windmills and solar panelAs well as the extra fossil fuel based energy plants required to backup wind and solar installations, keep in mind the additional CO2 produced and mining required to manufacture, transport and maintain windmills and solar panelas the extra fossil fuel based energy plants required to backup wind and solar installations, keep in mind the additional CO2 produced and mining required to manufacture, transport and maintain windmills and solar panels.

But because backup generators must repeatedly surge to full power and back to standby, as wind speed rises and falls, they operate inefficiently, use more fuel and emit more — much like cars forced to stop repeatedly on freeways.

Going Further by Adding Batteries and Electric Motors Then once the ICE itself has been made as efficient as possible, you can further improve overall fuel economy by coupling it with hybrid technology, from the mildest form that only provides anti-idling, to almost - fully - electric plug - in hybrids that have a battery big enough to allow driving in fully electric mode for a while (but there's still a gas engine to serve as backup).

We have dammed all the places that can really generate hydro and wind and solar are just not baseload enough — so you need just as much fossil fuel power as backup as if you had no solar or wind in the first place.

Of course, for intermittent renewables such as wind and solar PV you would also need to consider the energy losses from storage (or — more practically — the amount of fossil - fuel powered backup that they would need).

Hardening involves numerous details such as secure building access, quality server hardware and monitoring technology, sound backup facilities (including fuel tanks), and redundant Internet connections.
