Intermittency and the unsuitability of grid storage batteries to compensate is heavily played up by the carbon industry.

The future of low emissions energy production will be largely driven by overproduction and demand shifting, not banks of grid level batteries.

This likely won't happen as soon in America, however, the economy is too tied in to fossil fuels and the appetite to upgrade the electric grid by utility companies heavily invested in gas isnt really there.
