Renewable is a great base load power option. You supply your base load with your cheapest available supply, which is usually renewable.
You then supply all power needs above what can be provided by your cheapest power with dispatchable supply. If your base supply is intermittent, that means your dispatchable supply has to be able to supply 100% of peak.
