Surely a ramp up of solar would be a lot faster than a ramp up of nuclear? We might not have the battery capacity now but we could build a lot of factories in five years if the demand was there.

OTOH I doubt we have the specialists available to build more than a few nuclear plants simultaneously, and each plant appears to be a 30 year process...
