Sweden All In On Nuclear Energy, Dumps Renewable Target – Green Investing Co.

Imo, renewable should still be the target, nucleus should be the bridge towards renewable until it’s feasible enough
Building a stop-gap that will be ready 20 years after you get to the main destination for 10x the price isn’t a bright move.
I disagree… the biggest “issue” I have with “renewables” is the storage problem… That 20 years gives you time to figure out something while reducing the carbon output
Battery storage is already cheaper than nuclear.
…no it won’t because the new nuclear will generate nothing for 20 years. Whereas the renewables will reduce some carbon, even if we pretend that storage is both unsolvable (as opposed to already cheaper than nuclear) and necessary in a grid that’s already 40% hydro.
