So please tell us, what if it's dark?

  Combine with wind, which often blows more strongly at night (look at the curves at ercot.com for Texas, for example), and use storage (both short term efficient storage for diurnal leveling and lower capital cost storage like hydrogen for long term leveling/rare outage backup). The estimated cost of getting to 100% renewables this way is higher than the levelized cost, but still looks like it will be cheaper than nuclear.
