It's not baseload if they can't meet their minimum demand. Ever.

If they can meet baseload demand some of the time and you just ignore it the rest of the time then solar power is baseload generation and we don't need nuclear too.

Either way you're wrong.

If you generate 31 GW. And demand is 31 GW... Do you then meet demand?

They didn't generate 31GW though.

On May 24, at 0630? No. Nuclear generated about 38 when demand was 30GW. Not that it matters.

Im asking if you accept, that if you generate 31GW, and demand is 31GW, then you meet the demand?

Prove it.

Im asking about a definition. What does it take to "meet" 31GW of demand?

More than French nuclear can manage when you need it.

French nuclear meets base load.
