Distribution is a problem, but it's not the biggest.

The biggest problem is that building electricity generation on unpredictable and unreliable energy sources necessitates building out many times more infrastructure than what average production would otherwise require.

The example I give is that I produce 5x more solar in the summer than winter, but use the most electricity in the winter. It's untenable to build out 5x more infrastructure than I need in the summer just so I can get through the winter.

You turn the environmental disaster that is littering the earth with panels and turbines, multiply it by 5x more than average need, building out expensive grid interconnections, at extreme cost, to solve zero problems.

It's an expensive solution in search of a problem to solve.
