Unfortunately no they can't. China themselves, the biggest producer in the world, only has the equivalent of a few days of winter consumption of Germany. Batteries to smooth out the production yearly is still sci-fi.
There's no replacement for a nuclear plant yet for this purpose until a very large breakthrough is made. The only realistic large scale storage at this level is a dam and since the tech is old, most places in the developed world where one can be built has one already.
- chomskyole 2y agoThere has been plenty of replacement for nuclear. It's something that really never made it big due to costs. I would also highlight risks, given the current environment in Europe. If you build nuclear, you would have to allow for defending it too.
