  • It literally is about energy density. You don’t understand how many batteries you would need to replace one mid sized nuclear plant. Batteries are not 100% efficient closer to 70% after charge and discharge. A mid sized plant is 500-700MW. A 1 MW battery is a 20-foot shipping container. It weighs about 15 tons and you would need about 1000 to replace the plant and enough renewables to recharge all of those 1000 batteries to get the 700MW back out to note, this would be 1,360,000 cubed feet of batteries, not counting housing, cooling systems, sprinkler systems, or anything else. This doesn’t even get into the fact the battery bank isn’t producing live load and is only good for 1 to 3 hours of draw till the cells are drained (1 to 3MWH ). While the plant produces round the clock energy. So quadroople your batteries minimum.

    I don’t know how to say this without being rude.

    If you understand all of what you have just stated and continue to use an ineffective means of communication…

    You might actually be an idiot, regardless of your intellectual prowess.

    You’re not going to magically make the 85% of the world population that isn’t autistic suddenly fall down upon their faces and worship logic.

    You may know how to play chess, but it doesn’t count for shit if you’re on a checkers board.
