> The real actual nuclear power, which is better than coal, but not particularly competitive with modern renewables “Modern renewables” aren’t competitive at all, you can’t build a grid based on them. The ginormous amount of renewables in Germany compared to how much CO2 per kWh their grid produces (https://app.electricitymap.org/zone/DE https://app.electricitymap.org/zone/DE ) is everything you need to know. Even in places like California (where I live) where Solar is viable, renewables will require so many battery storage to remove gas plants that it’ll push their co2/kWh way higher that nuclear.
