One could argue that fossil fuels are a kind of chemical battery that store solar energy from aeons ago.
But in a strict sense you’re right and that’s why I’m keen on having more batteries in the wild, because there are (more and more) times, in which wind turbines and solar farms need to be throttled or shut down, because their continued operation endangers the grid by providing too much electric energy.
So more batteries -> more renewable energy can be captured and stored/buffered!
Friendly reminder batteries are not an energy source they just store energy and stabilize the grid
