Right now the comparison between France (61 GWs of installed nuclear) and Germany (130+ -!!!- GWs of installed renewables) is disastrous. Their choice to phase out their remaining plants was criminal but the policy is dumb in general, tying themselves to coal and gas power for the realistic future. I’m very curious to see when (or if) they’ll ever get to the same emission levels and how much time and money they’ll have wasted by then.
BTW. Nuclear Power Plants pay themselves up in decades of operation. Of course a privateer is not extremely keen in this kind of investment. That is exactly why countries are supposed to invest in strategic infrastructure, which are partly indirectly financed by privateers through treasury bonds.
I like how governments are supposed to shit their money out of the window to support renewables with billions in incentives but when the matter is investment in nuclear power suddenly it’s unsustainable economics. Let’s ask Germany how their 600+ billion euro “energiewende” is going shall we?
I don’t think you understand what the alternatives are
And fell on deaf years until now. Way too many local admins splurged millions for “developing” this lunacy.
I remember when thunderf00t dunked on this idiocy like, 10 years ago or something.
You got the point exactly. Thing is, hydro and geothermal power are not scalable. Thinking one can decarbonize Germany or the US with renewables alone is a pipe dream unfounded in reality.
Give me an example of an industrialized country which runs on wind and solar without gas or coal backup plants.
Amazing, somebody should tell Germany about it.
Well joke’s on them as now I find my email experience so unbearable I barely open it at the cost of missing important stuff :p
Let me know when renewables reach the stage where they don’t have to be backed up by coal and gas plants.
Gotta love anti nuclear activists getting more and more desperate. You’re being decarbonised. Please do not resist.
That’s a great plan to never actually decarbonize
I don’t think you should have your license if you don’t know that steering with the back wheels gives you much finer control in you maneuver…
Boi you’re the proverbial pigeon shitting on a chessboard.
Drops in profits can mean investments, new hires and a myriad of other stuff. No meaning in the headline whatsoever. Profits are not revenue.

Yeah totally the customer’s fault for wanting a nice display in friggin 2024, certainly not the software’s which still has no proper support for it.
