Nuclear costs 6x what renewables do and takes 10 years to bring online. Hinkley was estimated at £9 billion, but it’s already 10x over budget at £92 billion. China is installing renewables at a rate of 5 nuclear power station equivalents per week. The only possible reason for nuclear power now is to make fuel for nuclear bombs.
Though this is true what about this? 𝐄𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐲 𝐃𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐲: Nuclear Power: 0.036 KW/sq ft Solar Power: 0.01 KW/sq ft Wind Power: 0.0001 KW/sq ft Hydropower: 0.005 KW/sq ft and, nuclear power is unmatched in its ability to provide consistent, reliable energy. Unlike renewable energy sources such as solar and wind, which are inherently intermittent and dependent on weather conditions, nuclear power plants operate continuously, regardless of external environmental factors. This means they can supply a stable baseload of electricity 24/7, which is crucial for modern industrial societies that require a constant energy supply to power homes, businesses, and critical infrastructure.
@@johnhayhurst5884 additionally, Nuclear is only more expensive currently because of the lack of production / competition. Whenever someone says " China is" it completely diminishes their point, especially concerning renewables or energy, they are greatly increasing their number of coal power plants, their general unregulated production with massive emissions is fookking the planet with the excessive influx of vehicles we do not need to go green (HIF carbon, capture, conversion is more effective - it utilises existing infrastructure). The transmission of energy with renewables is also a massive screw up and not mentioned in the costs, they balloon the costs of renewables beyond Nuclear because of grid structure. Nuclear is a better centralised energy source, solar / wind are better on your house in smaller / modular scales combined with gradient batteries for storage (not those explosive chemical batteries of death).
