Gosh, German solar got € 500/MWh for 20 years, and some providers are still getting that today. The average fixed reimbursement was well over €200 just a few years ago. And UK off-shore wind projects are being offered at £150/MWh even now. And of course you don't prioritize the variable/random suppliers over the ones that can provide stable base load. Speaking of California: highest electricity prices in the continental United States. Georgia, where those "catastrophic" Vogtle-3/4 reactors were built has less than half that. Including the rate increase for the Vogtles. Same story in Europe: Germany has the highest electricity prices in the EU. And that's without the extra subsidy that used to be paid for via the electricity price and is now paid for via taxation. (Fun exercise: form the intersection of the set of taxpayers and the set of electricity users) Note: the absolutely worst, most catastrophic nuclear power builds (which for some reason the only ones anti-nuclear lobbyists ever cite) are more effective than the best renewables.
