@gloekgloek3046 YEP and winds is even less - but the nuclear plants in France are still using the 60 year old process. The newer processes WILL be much cheaper and safer and flexible when they finally come on line.

@gloekgloek3046 - Not true - we just built the wrong type of reacters cos they wanted nuclear fuel for bombs in the cold war... So we build TAHT type of reactor, cos we know about that type of reactor. Newer ones are way cheaper and safer and smaller - I mean some fit in a shipping container and will run a small town. Putting them on floating barges is a really good idea - no planning issues and if they have a problem you just sink the barge - water is a moderator so the reaction stops. And we are rally good at making nuclear subs and ships. There are lots of options - but we still build the massive expensive one's cos they have all the certifications cos we have used them for decades. A university in the USA ran a molten salt reactor for years - its so safe the students ran it...

THE WORLD SHOULD HOLD a giant "we told you so" festival where deligated from every country point and laugh at the Germans who are responsible for the decision... You WATCHED the Russians cut off the gas to Ukraine in the middle of winter and kill people with hypothermia and you thought "YEP - they are the guys we should rely TOTALLY on"
