Two questions:
(1) Why does pro-solar have to be anti-nuclear?
(2) How quickly can nuclear reactors and associated transmission lines be built, and at what cost?
My understanding is we’ve reached the point where solar and wind are quite cheap (cheaper than nuclear) and rapidly getting cheaper. We still need to solve the storage issue, but things on that front are progressing quickly.
I am certainly in favor of nuclear power where it makes sense, but again as I understand it the situations where nuclear is more economical are rapidly decreasing. Perhaps it’s better for society to “skate to where the puck is going?”
Or perhaps I am incorrect about the economics?
