No I don't think so. Nuclear is super effective and consistent, especially for large setups.

Using renewables while we get our nuclear up makes complete sense. And subsidising nuclear with renewables after that also makes sense.

But the technology to rely entirely on renewables isn't really there either.

Yes, it is.

This is a book by a professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering that goes into the details. We don't need nuclear. All the tech is there.
