You should thoroughly reconsider your statement regarding baseload capability because it is completely wrong. A calm period at night and you are out. Baseload capability means being able to ramp energy demand up and down in certain output ranges at any time of day or night. Currently, this can only be reliably done with nuclear, coal, gas, hydro, partly pumped storage, and very limitedly with combustion power plants. But not with photovoltaics or wind energy without having previously stored the energy they generated somewhere in large quantities. There were model trials with using energy from wind turbines to operate pumped storage plants, but here too, limits were quickly reached.
Considering you allegedly work at an institute of TUM, you have surprisingly little knowledge of storage solutions, Power2Gas, and compressed air storage.
And you first have to experience this absolute calm at night in the North and Baltic Seas.
But sure. You deal with shaft solutions and therefore only have a hammer. Every problem looks like a nail to you for which, of course, only your hammer is the solution.
A well-known problem.
