According to [1], 3/4 came from renewables during the re-startup. Most of today's inverters are black-start ready. That is, they don't require external energy to startup, unlike nuclear, which is heavy, costly, and slow. German readers may find fefe interesting here [2]. He debunks many of these myths.

- brutusborn 1y agoInteresting, especially the black-start ready inverters, but orthogonal to our comments on the stability of nuclear. If the addition of renewables leads to an unstable grid, it is irrelevant if the grid is then restarted with the help of renewables.
- Helmut10001 1y agoYes, you're right - these are two different things and we should not mix discussion arguments. Thanks for the point!
