The problem is that just adding power capacities together, or in the case of wind and solar[*], average capacities, doesn't tell you what you want to know, which is the probability of a supply shortfall that cannot be addressed by contractually based load shedding.
The modelling needs to look at variability in supply and demand using real meteorological data, including appropriate failure probabilities for both generators and transmission equipment, and come up with a defensible probability. Having established a model of a system that gives an acceptable probability (no worse than we currently have, I'd suggest), we'd have a basis for determining the cost.
Without that, it's not a plan, it's just wishful thinking. Yes, the modelling would be expensive, but no one, other than the converted, will take any notice if it's not done.
[*] I'm ignoring wave power because it's such a trivial amount anyway, and almost certainly not worth doing.Sylvia.
