    But why not skip the expense and nuclear waste and just build up mixed renewable energy instead? It’s cheaper and plenty of places have already done it with great success.

        There are plenty of places already doing a mix of renewables with in-fill from batteries and transient gas generation and it works just fine. eg. South Australia. No coal or nuclear is needed and the gas is gradually being phased out with other renewable sources.
