At least with studies on the Australian grid, it seems like the need for "baseload" sources is myth fueled mostly by resistance to upgrading to renewable sources.

That seems good, as then we can set a date when fossil fueled power plans should be banned and only renewable sources will be allowed.

I recommend 2030.

There's a lot of "could" and "will need to change" there, don't see hard facts proving a myth.
