"...Finally, in my previous blog, I noted that wind and solar were essentially zero for the Northwest in this situation. Well, the situation is still very bad (near zero generation) for wind and solar (green line). Hydro is doing most of the heavy lifting, with nuclear being a very valuable number two. We need both hydro and nuclear and this situation will not change quickly. This is reality...." cliffmass.blogspot.com The nuclear option always comes up in these cold weather situations. Net zero has painted themselves in a corner it seems. Golfed with an ex Cameco guy the other day. Alberta chap, weather came up, he couldn't understand why the nukes, used on aircraft carriers for an example, weren't being embraced for power generation with the desire by some to cut CO2. Proven tech and all. FWIW I lean heavily towards NG generation in my locale.
