    To late they already used the climate and transformation fund, to build 3 new gas power plants.

      If we can store the uranium rods in your living room okay, otherwise fuck off

      I mean, solar+batteries is now considered cheaper per kWh than nuclear. Sure, nuclear would displace fossil fuels to some degree, but it feels like a technology that’s on the way out to me, too, so I think, it has its advantages that we’re focusing on solar.

      Of course, you have the downside that expensive forms of energy have more lobbying money.

        Yeah.

        They had nuclear power and mine producing uranium. For some arbitrary reason they drove nuclear out and built dependency on other sources.

        Having nuclear present as clean energy, they could easiliy and cheaply strip off that gas part and maybe produce enough electricity to make anything electrical way more lucrative option instead of fossil burning.

        What comes to solar and storaging that energy, yet again it builds dependency to other countries, such ss China.

    In terms of global primary energy consumption, there is no shift. The fraction of fossils in total is effectively constant.

    I make about two thirds of my net electricity demand by DIY rooftop solar. Might look into few kWh battery buffering and zero feed in this year or next.
