Sorry no. France has proven the case for nuclear as a business many times over.

And for all the benefits of renewable. It has one huge disadvantage. We cannot control availability. So either storage (takes more space then the UK has. Or harmful materials for battery’s. Or some form of power plant that can be turned on or of with demand.

Nuclear is by far the cleanest that meets that goal. Until STEP is proven at large scale. (We are now building a full size fusion plant so post 2040 that looks likely).

It really is the best option.
