German solar juggernaut rolls on despite tariff cuts

9. I see.

As I read what you say I understand that you feel that armed with the fact that insolation in Germany isn't "optimum" you are in a better position to evaluate the best fit solutions for the values the German people hold about their energy supply than they are by "eyeballing" a map?

As for the "bang for your buck" thesis you offer, I'm guessing that you haven't read the OP or followed this thread or you would probably be aware of the pressure solar is putting on fossil fuel prices and way that results in a declining spiral that will eventually put fossil fuel generators out of business. I was under the impression that achieving that goal was the first and foremost motive behind all of the nuclear supporters promotion of nuclear power, was I wrong?

I would think that given the absurdly exorbitant sums you endorsed spending on nuclear justified by CO2 reductions, that you would consider solar - with its plummeting price and soaring manufacturing base - to be an absolute bargain.
