Ten years ago I didn't even have an opinion on this. Evidence has lead me to this conclusion. Renewables have their own set of problems which need solving first, like battery storage. I think that's a much larger challenge than replacing coal with nuclear.
- pfdietz 7y agoNo, I don't think that's true at all. Renewables are pulling away from nuclear. The cost advantage of renewables, and the continuing cost declines of renewables and of storage, have put nuclear into an almost impossible position. Everything is going to have break just right for nuclear to not go extinct as a practical technology for power generation.
