Nuclear superior to wind and solar
By David Wojick |January 23rd, 2021|Energy|201 Comments

Future energy mixes should show a growing contribution from modern nuclear power plants. That is the core finding of the new “No Regrets Energy Policy” proposed by the Climate Intelligence Foundation (CLINTEL).

 CLINTEL finds current governmental energy-transitions to be “scientifically unfounded and economically suicidal” because of their dependence on wind and solar power generation.

 They put it this way:

 â€œThe optimum energy mix of different countries will be different, but they all have in common that the contributions of solar panels and wind turbines to the energy mix will remain marginal. Dependence on weather conditions and lack of proper energy storage cause fundamental bottlenecks. Decision makers must stop backing these lame horses.”

24x7x52-available power vs. power that shuts down with night and bad weather ... tough choice!

24x7x52-available power vs. power that shuts down when the wind is calm or too strong ... tough choice!
