It remains to be seen whether this prognosis turns out to be true (there have been some doubts expressed), but since
grand minima of solar activity did occur in the past, it is certainly interesting to explore what effects such a
minimum might have on 21st century climate if it did occur.
Of course, on a timescale of one decade the noise in the temperature signal from internal variability and measurement uncertainty is quite large, so this might be hard to determine, though tamino showed that five year means show a monotonic increase over recent decades, and one might not unreasonably expect this to cease for a decade in a grand solar minimum scenari

It is worth noting that Theodor Landscheidt — one
of iconoclasts in the «
solar - forcing - trumps GHG's» school

solar dynamo.

The Neptune / Uranus factor is a lot weaker around the time
of the Medieval Warm Period (Jupiter & Saturn not aligning) with very little disturbance (not unlike the overall weakening trend we are starting to experience now), but still I predict a weak
