Frankly, I don't mind as long as I can get enough electricity at any time of the day.
So you don't mind paying 40 cents/kWh?
That would be if we had nuclear only.
Well, there is a push against nuclear and for renewables and prices are going up. Something something ccorrelation causation
Might have something to do with Corona and most fossil gas coming from russia, don't you think?
And shutting down clean and safe nuclear power, yes. Why do you think we were so reliant on Soviet natural gas?
Aside that nuclear power is neither safe nor clean. Who do you think is the main supplier of Uran? It is... Russia!
Russia provides our Uranium because we chose them.
And nuclear isn't safe since? https://www.statista.com/statistics/494425/death-rate-worldwide-by-energy-source/
