The video goes through this in great details. When we close down nuclear energy plants we know from history what those replacement power plants are. They are fossil fueled energy plants, mostly coal and oil. If a country can shutdown nuclear plants without adding more coal, oil and natural gas power plants to the grid then more credit to that country. If they can use that cheap solar and wind without a fossil fuel plants then that is what the market should do, but until that is the practical result of dismantling nuclear power plants then we should not continue the practice of replacing nuclear power plants with coal and oil. If that cost more money then it will have to cost more. The single simplest solutions to all this debate over renewable costs is to simply impose a law which say nothing about nuclear or renewables. A simple law that forbids the construction of new fossil fuel power plants or the expansion of new capacity by existing fossil fuel power plants. What about the cost of nuclear? What about the cheaper price of renewable? We don't need the law to mention either. That should be up to the market to decide, because if we forbid the construction of fossil fuel power plants then the ever increasing demand for more energy will trigger market forces to build something, either nuclear or renewable. I am not a nuclear advocate. I simply do not want more coal, oil and natural gas being burned when in the past my country (Sweden) has been pretty good at avoiding burning fossil fuels. When they recently turned of a reaction, a backup oil power plants suddenly found itself commercial viable to run all year round rather than just during the cold winters. I do not want oil in my air, I do not care if oil is cheaper, and I do not want Sweden to go down the path that Germany has with its replacement of nuclear in favor of more fossil fuel plants. There need to be a law, preferable internationally, which say that you can not replace non-nuclear energy capacity with fossil fueled energy capacity.
