Wind? there is tonnes of wind to be had in Australia, if there's not there's still the two other options, all 3 options would have us fine, as there would be enough power generated...
Mate there is no way of storing the energy that is generated, without a massive cost. Excess energy is currently earthed during the day as you can not speed up or slow down generators when a bit of sun hits some solar panels. The only way to remove coal and gas generation is to use nuclear, it is a simple as that.
