First off, I think you have to consider the source. "The Register"? Seriously? You might look at the sidebar links as a guide to its credibility, or (IMHO, anyway) save some time by realizing that any site which uses the word "boffins" is aimed at credulous idiots :-)
But if you really consider the content, what they are saying is not that renewables aren't viable (for one thing, residential solar has reached grid parity in about 10 US states, and is on track for a majority in a couple of years). They're saying that society in its present form is not sustainable, and we knew that already.
