Baseload is the minimum power the grid must supply at all times. As nuclear scales, costs fall. Most in the nuclear community respect renewables as vital, but doubt they alone suffice. This isn’t anti‑renewables—it’s about balance.

Not sure why you’d call baseload energy propaganda. Nuclear still supplies ~20% of U.S. power. Yes, it’s costly now, but standardized designs will lower costs. Meanwhile, it’s carbon‑free baseload with 60–80 year reactors. What do you recommend instead? Renewables aren’t enough on their own.

QS and Solid Power have teased solid-state for years. It’ll be great when it lands. But Lucid’s new Gravity already hits 450 miles and charges 0–200 in 12 minutes. Solid-state sounds sexy—but if it’s not cost-competitive, does the average driver even care?

Great stats—once you go electric, you rarely go back. The vast majority of EV owners stick with it. And regardless of what Washington thinks, the shift is already happening quickly.
So here’s the real question: Who’s ready for the future and who’s clinging to a gas pump like it’s a security blanket?

I feel the same—AI and electrification are pushing us toward nuclear whether we like it or not. Once more reactors are up and running, I think public trust will grow. But lowering radiation thresholds? That’s a tough one. Fear runs deep, and it’ll take time to shift.

The facts are solid—but shifting public perception on radiation is no small feat. Let’s scale nuclear massively first, prove safety and reliability, then earn the public’s trust to revisit dose limits. Conviction follows demonstration.

I’m really intrigued by floating nuclear. Cooling’s easy, offshore space is abundant, and CORE’s siting avoids tsunami risk. But public trust and vessel security are the real hurdles. If those hold, this could be a huge win for resilient, scalable energy in a warming world. Thanks for sharing
