Who the actually cares about cheaper I want better and more reliable

Can we please stop optimizing everything into low quality low reliability garbage for the sake of being cheaper?



Renewables and storage would be cheaper at the same level of reliability.


You are delusional if you think renewables and storage will be the same reliability as base load plants like nuclear, gas, coal


Renewables and storage wouldn't drop gigawatts off the grid in an instant. They'd be massively redundant and distributed. That's how you get reliability.


No way any current place is building that kind of oversupply and redundancy


"No one is doing it therefore it is impossible" is a remarkable argument, especially from someone trying to argue nuclear can replace fossil fuels.
