In regions that are “100% powered by renewable energy”, what happens to the traditional power plants?
In: Engineering
Manitoban here. 97% of our electricity comes from hydroelectric power. We also have 2 large wind farms. We have 2 plants that are natural gas (1 is mixed use with coal) powered, but are there for peak demand. There are also apparently 4 isolated communities that use diesel power generation, but they only make 3 or less megawatts of power each.
