    No. Not at all. We can roll out renewables faster than nuclear.

      Let me know when renewables reach the stage where they don’t have to be backed up by coal and gas plants.

          Amazing, somebody should tell Germany about it.

            Germany is not the whole world. JFC

              Give me an example of an industrialized country which runs on wind and solar without gas or coal backup plants.

                Most countries which are near 100% renewables are using hydro or geothermal. Wind and solar plants being added to the mix in large numbers is a very recent phenomenon.

                  You got the point exactly. Thing is, hydro and geothermal power are not scalable. Thinking one can decarbonize Germany or the US with renewables alone is a pipe dream unfounded in reality.

                    You miss my point. And I can’t be bothered explaining it to you.
