Not at all.

The EVs' batteries are used as storage, which can help with intermittent electricity production but it implies two things assuming it can work at all:

1. enough electricity is produced overall,

2. the grid has the capacity to move all that electricity around.

These are the two issues I initially mentioned and using EVs' batteries as temporary storage solves neither.
