No, that is why you made a gross error extrapolating grid battery growth. > when oil runs out, which it is close to doing today. Peak oil is a way off yet, and the reason we need to stop using sequestered carbon is because atmospheric insulation is increasing steadily as a direct result of fossil fuel usage. Not because of ground supply shortfall. The current events highlight the supply chain issue - not a shortage of oil, it's a shortfall in "oil going anywhere". > Nuclear will do that, and people will pick nuclear if the renewables aren't there Again, country by country - nuclear makes sense in China, the US to a degree, France, the UK (despite the snails progress) to a degree ... but makes no sense in, say, Australia that has abundant sunlight, fresh air that moves, and near zero prior experience with nuclear power and plant construction (See: the very recent Australian CSIRO report on energy futures for Australia) | ||
