    BATTERIES.
    I used capitals to emphasise their existence so you might remember to include them in your future summaries.
    They are being deployed all over the world to replace peaking gas generators.

    Also add in the variety of power capture with the variety of weather conditions. I know you guys like to imagine the worst case scenario where nothing is generated for a week but in reality that simply doesn't happen.

    Combined with renewables they are far more efficient than coal, gas or nuclear because they don't take ages to ramp up or down and neither do they have a minimum output that gets dumped when demand falls below that threshold.
