Thermal power plants are not suitable for supplying base peak loads.

Thermal power plants are not suitable for supplying base peak loads. Correct Answer True

To operate as peak load plant, a power plant must be able to meet sudden variation of load. The major drawback of a steam power plant is that it requires appreciable time to start up, synchronize and take up load. Hence thermal power plant is not suitable to work as peak load plant.
