I see you’re a supporter of nuclear energy. You might have missed the first post in this thread about how building new nuclear plants is not something that happens anymore realistically. Also, I’m in nuclear-free Aotearoa, so that will never happen. New power capacity for the home owner either comes from solar panels, which can be imported from Korea, or it comes from diesel generation on the other side of the globe, supporting the worst repressive regime you can imagine. @kravietz@agora.echelon.pl

@futuresprog@mastodon.nzoss.nz I’m supporter of decarbonisation. Nuclear power is the only low-carbon electricity generation that is dispatchable and does not depend on geography. Unlike the PV & wind fans, I’m not going to tell you what you should be using in Aotearoa. You should use whatever works in your geographic landscape and lattitude and delivers decarbonisation.
