    In Australia solar works so well and nuclear is so inappropriate* that now batteries are so cheap you don’t hear informed opinions other than renewables and batteries.

    *because the Aussie grid on the east coast is a line north/south, and the population is too small, we can’t use the power of two reactors because too few people, we don’t want a solution where one generator is powering both Melbourne and Brisbane, with nuclear you need enough generators to be able to take one down completely for maintenance
