It's obviously great that renewables are getting better and cheaper. But, what energy source will we use when the sun is not up and there's no wind?

They're not producing all of the time. Renewable power production vary greatly: it's actually problematic that they produce way too much at peak hours, while none at all on windless nights.

You need a stable base production. What better to replace coal and natural gas than nuclear?
