Nuclear power output is incredibly stable but that can be an issue in itself. Produces energy when we don't need it.
The solution will probably be nuclear for base, renewable for excess and storage to balance the difference.
But talk is cheap, lets actually do it.
- jayparth 4y agoWhat do you know about this topic? How much can nuclear ramp up and down to follow demand?
- op00to 4y agoThere are a few ways to control nuclear power plant output. You can send the steam someplace else and the generator turns slower. You can also moderate the nuclear reaction using control rods.
- akvadrako 4y agoNuclear can ramp up and down very quickly. The only issue is that fuel costs are negligible, so ramping down does not save money.

- Ekaros 4y agoOr hydrogen and synthetic fuels... It is not like we do not have options where to spend energy if it was reasonably available.
- Gud 4y agoAbundant energy doesn’t really sound like a problem to me
