Meteorological Drivers of European Power System Stress

Figure 2

Mean European total peak load for various proportions of installed renewable generation, for 1979–2018. Solid lines give the 1979–2018 mean peak load, whereas dotted lines show 2 standard deviations from the annual-mean peak load. Line colours show demand-net-solar (yellow), demand-net-wind (blue), and demand-net-renewables (black).
