Cmon guys, coal still leaves the most dust.
Now we just need a cheap sustainable storage medium for all that solar power and were golden. Anyone?
Batteries would like a word. They’re already storing solar power, getting cheaper, and improving at a pace nuclear construction schedules can only dream of. For longer gaps, pumped hydro and thermal storage can pitch in. Turns out the answer isn’t one magical box, but a bunch of technologies that actually exist.
Gravity batteries in abandoned mineshafts. Put a bunch of rocks in an elevator and use them to spin a generator as they fall.
Approaching this problem like it has one perfect solution is pure ignorance.
There have been 400 nuclear power plants worldwide for 40 years now. The pre-condition to leave nuclear power plants in the dust is consistent, leisurely growth.
