There are a number of peak gas turbines around the place that are able to spin up very quickly and provide capacity where needed.

The only downside is that this power has to be paid for, 10 points if you can guess who foots the bill?

Edit: there are also other mechanisms in place, but I doubt this forum is the correct place to discuss such information.
