Yep. So much of this shit from "environmental activists" that have no fucking clue how any of this works. It's been shown time and time again that nuclear is the answer for base load energy requirements with minimal environmental impact.

When and where? Nuclear is very very expensive. Nuclear doesn't work well as baseload since while you can turn it off rather quickly you can't turn it back on fast when it's needed again

Isn't that the point of baseload? To cover the non-highs, but provide the stable base?

No, you want the baseload to take over when there isn't enough much cheaper renewable energy.

That's what they just said? Just in different words
