Renewables plus storage are very well capable of reliable supply.

Don't get me wrong, they are capable of a much larger percentage of supply than they currently provide, but to handle the predictable periods of peak demand on the grid, it would be incredibly inefficient to rely only on renewables plus storage. It's not the most environmentally friendly solution for that.

Do you have an english translation for the link in the edit btw?

an institution as unsuspicious of being “too green” as it gets

Being too green is not the problem. The problem is not being green enough...

Unfortunately, no. Most of the site lets you choose English, but for this specific article you'd need Google translate, or deepl, or whatever else.
