      Modular reactors have been equiped to submarines for decades, they passed the concept stage long ago.

      There are many kinds of nuclear reactors, but not much was invested into them to bring the cost down.

      I am not saying that nuclear is perfect. Unless we figure out fusion it won’t be a long term solution. It’s just what we need right now to get rid of fossil fuels while we figure out the large scale renewable grids with good storage tech.

      Hydrogen is a good option, if only EV manufacturers focused more on that… Charging the EV would be a matter of minutes not hours and there wouldn’t be issues with colder climates like the current batteries have.

        Hydrogen doesn’t work and nuclear is too expensive CCS also doesn’t work.

        Renewables work and are cheap and easy to install. Combine them with battery in a SunWindBattery system and maybe a bit of hydro and we have enough energy.

        There are so many solutions.

        But instead we are using gas and burning oil. Politicians and fossil fuel companies obstruct renewables and other climate mitigation

        Because profit is more important than human survival.
