Reply #31: "A PRACTICAL guide to a prosperous, low-carbon Europe" [View All]

[Statistical]

So are you claiming the authors are now part of you (ever growing) list of nuclear shills?

They (not nuclear industry) left that option off because the focus was PRACTICAL pathways to low-carbon Europe.

All practical pathways to low carbon Europe include nuclear energy (and/or CCS Coal).

Not all possible paths to low carbon ecnomy involve nuclear power but according to the authors all PRACTICAL paths do.

100% renewable requires massive energy storage and even more massive amounts of backup fossil fuel plants. Storage that isn't available. It also requires substantial imports of energy from Africa and lots of yet undeveloped technology. So it may be possible to go to low carbon with 100% renewables but according to the authors it isn't the practical path.

Nuclear power will be part of the mix and all your bogus "studies" and claims will do nothing to change that.

In 10 years, 20 years, 30 years from now we will have nuclear plants in US, Europe, and Asia.
