If you want 99.9999% uptime with no backup then the nuclear fleet will need months or years of storage due to the prevalence of correlated unplamned outages.
Back in reality, a good enough renewable system with >95-99% uptime has less than 10% of the storage that will be found in the accompanying country’s EV fleet. Even if you are too allergic to nuance to understand the real solution for the remainder, simply planning a renewable rollout and assuming existing fossil fuel peakers for down periods over 12 hours will take 20-100 years to release as much carbon as delaying one of the years waiting for late, over budget nuclear reactors.
I’m plenty open to evidence, it’s just every time I look at some it shows a new lie that nukebros tell. Every single talking point isnutter bullshit to the pooint where if you look it up you find that nukes are significantly worse by whatever hair-splitting metric is being used ti try and distract from their main downsides.
There is a fully renewable solution for the 2-5 >100 hour events a year where battery storage is unsuitable, but it requires holding more than one thought in your head at a time (thermal storage, dispatchable load and w2e is one combo).

That’s not very open minded. I’m all for vetting your sources and skepticism, but going in with your mind made up is close minded.

Look my dude, you’re clearly here to fight not discuss, and that’s fine we absolutely need to fight against the establishment, activisim is important. Fighting against your allies is a pro gamer move though.

And thus you have shown that your mind is made up and no amount of evidence will sway your decisions. Good day.

That last bit is the rub though. I’m fighting to decarbonize and reduce exploitation kf resource rich countries and you’re fighting to stop it.
The constant tirade of insane lies is tolerable. Pretending you’re not on the side of fossil fuels is the incredibly insulting bit.
No, the insulting bit is youd constant tirade of insane lies, buttercup.
