I'm not sure if you think this requirement is not actually necessary, or if you are thinking of using nuclear to make up a large percent of the base. The latte

  It's generally not necessary in the quantities and timeframes used in some anti-renewables arguments (those often being "now" and "all the capacity the renewables are generating"). It sometimes comes to people as a surprise how little solar / wind is actually installed and that the production mostly follows the peaks in daily consumption. Basically, the idea is that if we go installing new renewables at current speeds, we won't need any real battery storage for years.
