It’s wild that Africa doesn’t go for massive solar infrastructure.
Not all of Africa is a giant desert, or even that close to the equator.
That’s not what I say at all. But if it’s feasible in Europe, closer to the equator it must be a no brainer.
The price of the batteries is what will get you
Sure, money is no problem for Asia and Africa, right?
Let’s blow money on something that will produce results after 20 years for much more money than renewables + storage (if it doesn’t get canceled along the way after delays and cost overruns)
Nuclear does have other little bonuses.
Nothing that justifies a higher power bill than with renewables, and a new reliance on foreign fuel
They’re referring to plutonium production, which many states, especially now, may consider a worthwhile justification for the extra expenditures.
