And what about batteries or some other storage, for the times of no sunlight and dead wind patterns?
Who's crystal ball says we will have adequate storage means by then?
You build overlap redundancy in the system by building different systems. If your system only relied on solar power, then yes a cloudy day would be bad. But you include wind, hydroelectric, geothermal, etc. all together and if one falls short the others make up for it.
