Yes, because it isn't so expensive to turn things around. An estimated 100-200% in global GDP is needed to reach carbon net zero by 2050. Annually we need to spend 2-6% of GDP to solve this.

No, you just need peaker plants which can run for the 1-3 weeks per year when there is no wind in the winter. Battery capacity will never be built to exceed 1-3 days of demand.

'just going with nuclear' = just continue dreaming? Or in other words: when was this ever on the table to go just nuclear?

The surplus in summer during noon isn't useless bit rather means that during morning and early evening we need less fossils. This is the main point of all of this, remember? A surplus also leads to reduced prices which enables novel us

The Germans certainly don't want to export dirty coal power but my understanding was that they were essentially aiding France to overcome a summer of draughts which crippled the mono-culture in France.

I think you might be right in the short term or considering the past, but it doesn't explain why a lot of money is pouring into renewables nevertheless and that there just isn't any other path forward than building another magnitu

Nuclear is a bad idea, period. There are less than 20 new reactors in planning in the entire western world and their cost and timeline overruns show that nuclear is a losing ticket. The quicker we transition to renewable + battery, the bett

Certainly mistakes were made, but please recall that it is primarily market forces which led us to the German gas dependence. Russian gas was just cheaper than American and Qatari gas.

It wasn't a dumb idea. It was the most rational choice to use Gas. But rationality didn't work with a madman in the Kremlin.

Don't talk such nonsense. The capacity additions in renewables are so enormous that by 2030 most European countries will run so much surplus during summer that we will likely not know what to do with it. TFA talks about tripling in sol

Conversely, they conveniently ignore those when it comes to nuclear as a Hail Mary even though Nuclear has lost the race and won't return. Economies of scale are at work on Solar and Wind which squash any other generation technology.

Burying nuclear waste founds easy until you realize it is actually an unsolved problem (at least in western democracies).

I share your optimism in most parts but don't agree that fossil fuels will be stranded. Reduced demand will push down prices which will increase demand until a new equilibrium is found that satisfies cost of production. As long as the
