Comment on Singapore Approves 2,600-Mile Undersea Cable to Import Solar Energy from Australia

This is one of the cases where I’d just argue for nuclear energy. Too many industries and too high population density makes it very hard to use solar energy properly, they don’t have a lot of land either so land redistribution probably wouldn’t work as an alternative measure.

Do the economics of nuclear make sense though? A quick search showed around $5k/kW capacity. That’s $5 billion per GW. Then there’s permit and build times on top of that.
Surely renewables + distributed storage is going to become key?
