  It is news that they are now describing the transaction more accurately, once again thanks to California.

  Dude literally bought Kleenex and insists you call it facial tissue paper.

  The problem is not complicated. The problem is population. The solution is complicated.

  People have a hard-on about nuclear being “baseload” power and renewables being intermittent. Solar/wind plus batteries to add dispatchability is a valid comparison to nuclear if you only want to talk about baseload.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨40% of US electricity is now emissions-free⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This is due to corporate greed. Solar and wind are the cheapest sources of energy in the history of the world.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨40% of US electricity is now emissions-free⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Even current lithium-based battery storage is already cheaper than nuclear.

  Hydro is often turned on and off as pumped storage. Nuclear never is

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First planned small nuclear reactor plant in the US has been canceled⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Out of those you listed, nuclear is the least flexible in terms of output regulation. PV with batteries is the most flexible.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First planned small nuclear reactor plant in the US has been canceled⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah the poster above you is wrong. Solar is WAY less than half the price.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First planned small nuclear reactor plant in the US has been canceled⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Solar plus batteries are already cheaper than nuclear, and only going down. Nuclear has always gotten more expensive over time. For the cost of the most recently completed nuclear plant in the US they could have built 12 times the nameplate capacity worth of solar with 24 hours of battery backup. (A totally unnecessary amount of dispatchability.)

  Solar and batteries easily “pay” for their manufacturing carbon emissions within 1-2 years max (as does nuclear). This payback period only goes down as the grid gets greener.

  I want everything to be toggle switches. If I could get a keyboard made of 105 classic toggle switches it would be worth the effort to type with it.

  Batteries are already cheaper than nuclear.
