> they can offset the load when the sun shines, or the wind blows, but can't provide a stable source.

That they don't work when the sun doesn't shine or the wind doesn't blow is such a tired and trite remake.

Yes, they don't provide consistent output on their own, but storage exists. If you need electricity store it in batteries or pumped hydro. If you need it for heating store it in thermal batteries.
