    And there's no "failure of renewables" in Germany. The renewables just aren't enough to make up for closed nuke plants right now. I agree that it was stupid for Germany to close nuke plants, being they were already paid for. The renewables that Germany invested in have paid a handsome profit.

    If anyone loves nuclear power that much, they are free to invest in it. However, I wouldn't recommend it.
    You made that stuff up, or cut and pasted from somebody else who made that stuff up.

    Nuclear is the best option for the warmits.

    Yes. They also consume oil and nuclear spills. Although I would not recommend eating those mudrooms.

    You're actually denying that nuclear is insanely expensive? Really? And you expect not to be laughed at?
    Nuclear is the best option for the warmits.
    It costs several times more than the alternatives, hence it's obviously not the best solution. Unless you think someone else is paying for it, which tends to be the conservative way.

    Capital costs for nuclear plants are higher, but fuel costs are cheaper.
