Gas Turbines can answer the peak power problem. While the capacity has to be there, you don’t really pay for it until you need it.

Yes, gas turbines are the obvious choice for peak power because their capital cost is lower for a given installed horsepower than anything else I’m aware of. But that doesn’t make them free, and if they are needed only rarely the cost of their sitting idle has to be paid somehow.
