Never say never. And about solvable storage: right now it is not solved. So it makes sense to go nuclear (again).

- kelseyfrog 4y agoWhat are even the yardsticks by which nuclear storage success is even measured? /gen
- VintageCool 4y agoThere was scarcely any financial incentive to address the grid scale energy storage problem until like two or three years ago. There are a half dozen startups working on it now. My vote is to rapidly install renewables while we have the natural gas backstop, and give the storage startups a few years to make it happen. Energy Dome, Hydrostor, and Form Energy all look promising. And if new nuclear turns out to be less expensive than expected, great.
