Batteries and pumped hydro would be amongst the possible remediations. In Australia we've had a quite caustic discussion about beliefs in "base load" power which is an economically circular argument to justify continuous generation, not an actual "thing" otherwise. Data centers, especially worldwide servicing hyperscale also wind up being used to justify constant load as a thing in turn to justify coal burning.
