- seoaeu 4y agoThe problem with carbon capture is that (a) it takes a lot of energy and (b) is only marginally ahead of fusion on being ready for widespread deployment. So compared to that basically anything is a better alternative. In the case of Norway, apparently they produce ~90% of their electricity from hydro. Good strategy if there’s lots of spots in your country for hydro electric dams, pretty difficult to replicate if not.
