Solar power is at well over 250 times more efficient at producing electricity from the sun than coal or LNG.

If the Energy Return On the Energy Investment[ERoEI] is say 30 for the latest windmill it can supply the energy for another 29 windmills after it repays the energy for itself. Even if half is fed back into the grid and they can still still breed like rabbits, without any further input from filthy coal or LNG.

The wind doesn't stop everywhere. Even those filthy old coal plants need to shut down for maintenance and have the others cover for them. That's how renewables work, it's the sum total of the network, including batteries.
Even with the variable nature of the wind the onshore wind turbines are now producing electricity far cheaper than a new coal power station could.

Nuclear is far too expensive to consider.

You need to do some reading to catch up then you will see how silly these sort of comments are.
