OP is stupid and thinks there are a million megawatts in a gigawatt. It's a thousand. You only need 1550 barges to supply the entire USA.
Each barge is supplying an average of 10 cities, towns, and/or villages. So if each city is paying for its own grid storage, then Zohran needs to put together funding for 45 barges.
*for one hour
OP not only fucked up conversion, but confused energy and power. Battery capacity is a measure of energy while grid usage is a measure of power.
I do think nuclear power is an important part of a healthy grid. But the problem is, nuclear power plants take a lot of very specialised knowledge. When you build a nuclear reactor with non-experts, it runs five times over budget and takes a decade. And right now, there aren't any experts at all. So we can't afford that much time, and we can't afford all that money. We need climate solutions that are capable of saving the world right now. Current generation renewables and batteries can save the world right now if our politicians are willing to pay the investment now and reap the cost savings later.
But, after a few reactor building projects, we will have a handful of experts who can build reactors on-time, on-budget, and while training a team of rookies. So I do think we should put a little bit of money into nuclear on an indefinite basis, once we're hitting our projected climate goals. I want to see what molten salt reactor technology can do in 30 years, after we've saved the world with renewables.
