I'm generally a proponent of renewables, but I think it's also important to take seriously quantitative arguments against them. But without good sources, it's impossible to work out who's right.
This is useful to suggest solar will win in the end:

But much less clear how well wind, especially offshore, can compete.
This is also decent but doesn't get much into cost:
