This what is called Thermal equilibrium where electrons jumping from valence band has the same rate as the electron falling from conduction band so the number of electrons remains constant for a given temperature .
in order for an electron to jump into the conduction band, there must be an applied electric field. this causes the electrons to accelerate, thus moving from valence band to conduction band.
