The big picture which everyone is missing is that we need 'peaking' gas plants to cover the shortfalls over the next 10-20 years until grid storage catches up. There's no commercial incentive for these to be built, so they'd be at the expense of the taxpayer, and they would be sending GHG into the atmosphere. The 'bad news' is if this capacity isn't built, renewable output will drop enough for blackouts to become common, potentially causing more coal/gas/nuclear to be built, and sending back the progress of renewables by a few years.
