    Lol it’s a mineral that requires Titanium to form and last I checked that wasn’t cheap. Not only that, but every first person country all at once making Perovskite cells, it’ll end up like Lithium in time. But again, even now as they exist, they pale in comparison to what nuclear can produce.

        “Prone to degradation due to salt” is the part that I’m trying to illustrate. Yes, we have the materials for the moment but as demand increases and solar cells fail, will maintaining them and making new ones still be as cost effective as a nuclear plant down the road? That’s the basis of my concern and why renewables, while a great step in the right direction, seem to need so much more space and maintaining for less power.
