Swiss without nuclear power after shutdown

[FBaggins]

18. Not even close

Closer to 3-4 times that many.

Just 200 wind turbines similar to the ones they're installing off Block Island at this very moment

That would be the one that's expected to cost $300 Million for five turbines?

Even if we assumes that it would only take 200 of them (essentially assuming that wind will blow 90% of the time), that would be $12 Billion to replace that one nuclear unit... and then they have to do it again 20 years later... and then again 20 years after that.

It's also ridiculous to talk about the "utter simplicity" of offshore wind generation. It's actually a pretty challenging environment
