> Who said [that solar/wind and nuclear are all extremely safe]?

Not "who". "What". And the answer is "the data". The data say that.

Empirically. Completely independent of whether you understand how.

And nuclear did not peak in the 90s. 2024 was a record production year, 2025 was another record production year, the number of states adopting nuclear power is rising, the number of reactors is rising, the number of builds is rising, the rate of the increase in number of builds is rising.

Empirically.

And intermittent renewables are ... intermittent ... and therefore cannot actually completely replace fossil fuels. Which is why almost all industrialized nations are doing nuclear AND renewables.

Only in the renewbro-bubble are nuclear and renewables mutually exclusive.

In the real world they are complementary. Here's the Finnish environment minister:

"If we consider the [consumption] growth figures, the question isn't whether it's wind or nuclear power. We need both," Mykkänen said at a press conference on Tuesday morning.

He added that Finland's newest nuclear reactor, Olkiluoto 3, enabled the expansion of the country's wind power infrastructure. Nuclear power, he said, is needed to counterbalance output fluctuations of wind turbines.

Why don't you link to "the data" then?

> And nuclear did not peak in the 90s. 2024 was a record production year,

I just gave you a source which proves my statement and shows that yours is a lie. Just like everything else you added to it.

> And intermittent renewables are ... intermittent ... and therefore cannot actually completely replace fossil fuels.

Weird how they can't but already do. Must be some kind of magic eh?

> Only in the renewbro-bubble are nuclear and renewables mutually exclusive.

Nope. This is a lie also :)

Nuclear clogs up transmission ways when it's not necessary. This is a fact and happens today.

> Here's the Finnish environment minister:

Why not add the French environment minister also? You can add as many ministers as you want, the world doesn't care. The money goes into renewables and they're the future.

Good grief.

Your source shows exactly that what I said is the truth, and that you are lying.

https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/electricity-production-by...

The highest number for nuclear electricity production are 2024 and 2025, with 2025 being slightly higher than 2024.

Well presumably you are not aware that you are spreading falsehoods, so it's not technically a lie. Though it's so egregious that it might just be.

> Nuclear clogs up transmission ways when it's not necessary.

Haven't heard that joke in a long time. Good one!

It's not a joke.

It's reality.

[mpweiher]

Yes, it's a joke. Maybe not an intentional one, but a joke nevertheless.

It has nothing to do with reality.

[Krasnol]

Why are you lying?

[mpweiher]

One of us is lying.

It ain't me.

As one example of many see previous post on nuclear production records.
