  Nothing “requires” storage, but if you want power at night or during a cloudy week you need it or you need dispatchable generation like gas or nuclear

    right. the fun point were at is that solar+gas is cheaper than gas. it's worth buying solar panels just so you don't have to burn the extra gas
