3. Configuration where intermittent renewable energy production equals load
3.1 Definition of the partial electricity mix
The partial mix, which must balance the remaining load, is defined by a first parameter: the overall share taken by intermittent renewable energies (IRE: wind and PV), the value of their production being expressed as a percentage of the remaining load.
To maximize the share of renewable energies, we can aim to generate up to 100% of this load. At this level, there would be no need for any other (fossil) energy source if the renewable energies were able to adapt to the remaining load.
To reach 100% of the remaining load, annual EnRi production in 2013 must be multiplied by a factor of 9.42 for France and 5.48 for Germany. In fact, for France, EnRi...
