As it stands wind and solar can’t power 100% due to them being unavailable at times. Not to mention the insane amount of land and storage capacity required. Nuc

As it stands wind and solar can’t power 100% due to them being unavailable at times. Not to mention the insane amount of land and storage capacity required. Nuclear is ideally suited for the last 30% or so that’ll continue to be some form of steady state power generation required to augment renewables.
