I didn't say subsidize nuclear. I said subsidize grid-scale solar before rooftop solar.

- natmaka 10mo agoIndeed, sorry. Decentralizing solar power reduces electricity transmission costs and improves reliability. This doesn't offset the additional cost, but it's not negligible.
- coryrc 10mo agoIf the grid gets heavily overloaded, the frequency and voltage drop. And home-based grid-tie solar will shut itself off when it's most needed. This is fragile and DEcreases reliability.
- natmaka 9mo agoStorage, such as batteries coupled with V2G and also green-hydrogen fed turbo-alternators, can alleviate this.
