Doubling down on ignorance based claims doesn't help your case. We have built everything that is involved. There is no mystery, there is no secret waiting to be discovered. IOWs, your claims are pure bunk.

Tell you what, show the science that says we require nuclear; or that we need to learn something in order to build a renewable based global distributed grid, a national distributed grid, a local distributed grid or even a microgrid.
