Yeah that's great, but there's up to 12 hours a day in winter when there's no solar and we get weeks of calm, cool overcast days through winter .... which means you're going to have to have massively more wind and solar capacity than is required at the best of times and massive battery storage to get through the periods when it ain't sunny for weeks and there's bugger all wind ... just look at the past month across the east coast

Think about the billions we've already spent on batteries and less than an hour after darkness on the east coast and we're getting just 1% from batteries, how many hundreds of billions is it going to cost to get adequate storage? Will make nuclear look very cheap indeed

Just to cover the fossil fuels right now we need 77 times more battery capacity, and that's just for this one minute, we need to get through another 12 hours of darkness just for today

18% excess generation, 5 hours of battery storage.
