You opened this thread with "I agree with the left that climate change is a major problem". Yet you are blind that in your canonical example of the effectiveness of nuclear, France…

I think you missed the point: without storage nuclear only gets to 70% of the grid, and 31% of the total energy demand. With enough storage to displace oil and gas demand, nuclear …

I doubt your numbers then, as when I googled I found “There have been no deaths caused by carrying panels or laying panels on a roof. Electricians are required to connect the panel…

The nuclear deaths, unlike all the other sources, also ignores rest of system deaths (e.g. mining, enrichment, transport, construction and decommissioning accidents). Once you incl…

Your link shows that AU-SA only used 12% gas in october, and no coal at all.

Solution: in summer we pump the tides higher with PV, and in winter we draw them down.

I think that website is wrong or using obsolete data. I compared with another https://www.pickhvac.com/hvac/furnace-vs-heat-pump-cost/ and it said that with exactly the same number…

Sunlight: 90,000,000,000MJ/kg

$22B / 4.456B = $4.9/W, about 20x more expensive than your number for PV.
