In reply to the discussion: Cost of German Solar is Four Times Finnish Nuclear [View all]FBaggins
(28,677 posts)It's the demand that drives the equation... not the supply. Peaking supply must come from a source that you can turn on when you need it. You're wrong to claim that nuclear can't do that (the newed designs often can), but there wouldn't be a NEED to do that, since there's no point in turning it off... unless you go so far down the nuclear road (as with France) that it's too large a proportion of your portfolio.
You're trying to pretend that solar's greatest weakness is actually a strength. If you're in Phoenix, that's great. Not Europe. Much of Europe sees peaking demands when solar produces almost nothing at all.
The Breakthrough Institute are right wing shills
Yeah... there you go again accusing anyone who disagrees with you of being a RW shill. All the while conveniently ignoring that those supposed RW shills include the President of the US and MANY elected Democrats.
It's very evidently your "pound on the table" when you lack facts on your side of the debate.
