Storage is cheap - even if you use lithium. It pays for itself in a short period of time. Even with conventional sources, we need storage.

Nuclear doesn't have to cost more, and it didn't in the past. We didn't get less capable at engineering/constructing such power plants, we got more NIMBY.
Wind may be the least expensive way to generate
random electricity, but we don't need random electricity, we need precise and varying amounts.
Storage is not cheap, otherwise it would have already been implemented.
