Renewables are not a substitute for baseload.

You are looking at things backwards. Instead of building on baseload, look at peaking plants to shore up renewables. Hydro for the most part can be a peaking plant. Natural gas turbines make excellent peaking plants. Yes coal and nuclear are more baseload.
