      Care to expand on that?

      Nuclear is basically the only viable large scale replacement for base load generation to replace carbon fuels like coal and natural gas.

      Things like solar and wind are great, when they can generate, and grid scale batteries can help with balancing and peaks to an extent, but the base load is an issue that they just cannot address.

            I think they’re calling you a conspiracy theorist for understanding that nuclear is more consistent and safer energy than renewables. Which is an interesting reach.
