Next decade decisive for PV growth on the path to 2050: Experts warn waiting no longer an option for commitment to multi-terawatt photovoltaic production worldwide

Global experts on solar power strongly urge a commitment to the continued growth of photovoltaic (PV) manufacturing and deployment to power the planet, arguing that lowballing projections for PV growth while waiting for a consensus on other energy pathways or the emergence of technological last-minute miracles 'is no longer an option.'

I am a layman in this debate, but I have thought for a long time now, that #nuclear is (and will continue to be) the most important renewable source of energy for a clean future. It is not truly renewable, but with the right fuel it is probably renewable enough.

The power density (W/m²) of nuclear is just so much higher than wind and solar. You can combine it with hydro/dam power to create 'batteries' of potential energy. It is always on, no dependence on sunshine or wind.
