    Sometimed I am astonished that people post in a forum without being able to comprehend text

    We find that larger-scale national nuclear attachments do not tend to associate with significantly lower carbon emissions while renewables do.

      It’s you who can’t read. The whole correlation is flawed by design, hence ignored by me. If you read the limitations section, they explain how they lack specific data for a comprehensive comparison, so they aggregate the data and ignore “economic costs, integrated resource planning, reliability, lifecycle impacts, risk profiles, waste management, and ecological, political and security impacts”. Which are important factors to ignore, which completely changes the results when incorporated by other studies.
