SCIENTIFICAMERICAN.COM - A Golden Age of Renewables Is Beginning, and California Is Leading the Way
California has hit record-breaking milestones in renewable electricity generation, showing that wind, water and solar are ready to cover our electricity needs
Kevin Roberts - The author, Mark Z Jacobson, has produced a number of scientific articles claiming that wind water and solar can power entire grids. 

You will notice that nearly every single study claiming this has him as an author, and he does a lot of referencing his own work.
Other scientists that have looked into his work find it impossible to reproduce his findings. 

He uses custom climate models, which he doesn't share.
Still, he has the prestige of being a Stanford professor, and propaganda outlets like Scientific American will happily let him make any claims he wants, no matter how dubious...
