    One sees this kind of misrepresentative and irrelevant BS all the time.

    The condition that needs satisfying is to have all points of the supply curve meet/exceed all points of the demand curve, and not merely make the area under the supply curve bigger and bigger until it exceeds the demand curve at only selected points in time, which is the real situation in heavily pro-renewable states such as California, Germany and Spain.

    The only salient and relevant question that needs answering is:

    "How much of the time is the energy demand fully satisfied by renewable supply?"

    In the case of those aggressive renewable states, despite the trillions spent on renewables, that stat is disconcertingly low: less than 10%:
