The usual dishonest argument nuclear advocates make is to assume batteries are used to get renewables to 100% of the grid. You are doing it there. But batteries are not the ideal storage technology for all storage use cases. It turns out that e-fuels like hydrogen are much, MUCH better for some cases, like seasonal leveling, even though the round trip efficiency isn't great. It will likely be the case that a 100% RE grid ends up being considerably cheaper than a nuclear powered grid. Nuclear backing up solar is a completely stupid idea, btw. The economics don't work at all. |
