Renewables are unreliable and batteries are expensive (though the cost isn’t really the worst issue on that front).
As for solar, or any other renewable, being 10 times more expensive. Even if that were so, utility providers are installing more renewables because they’re more profitable than fossil fuel plants.
That the profit motive has flipped in their favor ensures a veritable mountain of renewables coming down the pipe, and many of the concerning things about them that have very much been swept under the rug in order to build support for greater deployment will soon become the most pressing issue of our time.
