Why does solar always need batteries? These are not "advances". India is adding 20k MW of solar and 10k MW of wind p.a. China is at 20+20. US at 20+20. Europe at 20+20.
30% of all new power capacity additions globally will be from renewables for the foreseeable future. Probably more.
This is without "batteries". Without subsidies.
The need for "baseload", "storage", or "the sun doesn't always shine and the wind doesn't always blow" are red herrings. They are not relevant.
Whether we like it or not, driven by massive cost and technology improvements, solar and wind are here in a massive way.
