In the Waymo video there are vector narrow lines added on top of the broken white line of the image view, there are also a vector boundary of the centered line and boundaries, and 3D box for cones. You are clearly not looking closely enough

Comparing worst capacity factor (for cited reasons) with best CF without saying it is offshore in some of the best location is misleading. Also is comparing dispatchable and intermittent/fatal. There a other factors to consider like re

That was not obvious, it was written like a French nuclear with French wind comparison. And also that is misleading because comparing the low capacity factor of French nuclear because it is used for load following and curtailed in summer be

There is currently no offshore wind park in France. Maybe you mean to compare wind in France with world best wind, but this is what you wrote. "nuclears capacity factor in France (the country with a high nuclear buildout) is about 72%,

And the onshore wind in France is 21%, and that is a fact you can easily check on the internet with public numbers.

I disagree that current onshore wind in France is not 50%, only 21%; also maybe you were comparing the low capacity factor of French nuclear because it is used for load following and curtailed in summer because it is scaled for winter usage

Price and capacity factor where completely wrong for wind, also current wind subsidies are about 93€/MWh.

This is what I said, I was talking about the ludicrous 50% capacity factor for onshore wind.

No, not for winter heating, also shared is cheaper than privately owned.

Not really, you need massive seasonal storage, like giant hydrogen cavern, or lot of methane gas holder.

It is becoming very hard to install news wind onshore in France, people are revolting against wind turbine because it decrease real estate price and are found ugly and noisy, and it is happening at a way lower penetration rate than Germany.

You are completely wrong on your numbers, in France in 2018 nuclear has a capacity factor of 71% and wind of 21,1% https://bilan-electrique-2018.rte-france.com/eolien/ Also there is currently no offshore wind park, as

In some countries maybe but in a lot of others there are days with almost no sun, batteries are not for seasonal storage.

Why not both ? With cogeneration you raise the efficiency from only electric generation from 40% to 80% with heat, but in summer you can still generate electricity only. And SMR are better positioned than classic reactor because the smaller

It is easy and only a political issue, because of the coal workers, but just do like England and switch to fossil gas, it will be more useful with intermittent wind and solar, but only moderately helpful for CO2/CH4 emissions, and does

An electrolyser is CAPEX expansive based on power usage, so you wouldn't want to run it at 10% to 40% charge factor.
