The headline appears to be misleading. From the article:
"The continuity lies not in renewables running the grid for the entire day ..."
So it's not actually that California's electricity demands were met by renewables 100% of the time as one might think, given the headline.
As far as I can tell, it's not even that, disregarding the intermittency problem, total energy demand was met, on average.
It's just that sometime during the day 100% was hit.
