Solar is following Moores law and is getting better, but that's the panels themselves. Batteries are needed for the unreliable parts, and batteries usually lose 50% of the electricity going into it. We're not ready for solar yet, not for another 10 or 20 years at least. And there is a strong possibility that nuclear fusion will be a thing then as well. If that becomes a thing then transmission lines will also be important to get as much energy as possible. Especially with the Ai future we have potential for also. I think Nuclear is the best option for the immediate and maybe 10 years time have another look at solar.
The disproportionate demand for copper used on low density solar power generation gets overlooked. There isn't enough copper on the planet to accommodate low density power generation and mass adoption of EVs heading towards net zero . Nuclear is required until fusion comes through in a hundred years.

With the greatest respect to the CSIRO, it is totally funded by the Australian Government which has had a policy for decades of making nuclear illegal. There is no way that the CSIRO is anywhere near a world best practice expert in nuclear.
The CQIRO are not what they once were. For the last few decades, they've been on a downward spiral. Dont forget the diet published by the CSIRO - treated as a definitive and trustworthy source, until it came out that it was paid for by a major player in the meat and livestock industry... These "gencost" reports are no different. They say what they are told to say by the solar and wind companies. It's not science or engineering, it's propaganda.
that was a good example of how not to run an interview where an interviewer asks questions and listens to the answer. it was more an argument by ferguson intent on pushing the lefty government agenda, and doing it in a rude domineering fashion. many times obrien could not get a word in edge ways, especially when critical of the government, a poor interview by any standards.

The time to build a nuclear reactor is a bit irrelevant, its going down the path to becoming nuclear sufficient is important. Especially as Australia has plenty of uranium, and space for a waste dump. After all, even if Australia cuts its emissions by 100%, it wont make one bit of difference to the worlds climate.
the waste which is small can go out at the nuclear test range wheree it doesnt matter, and replacing coal boilers at existing power stations is sensible and cost effective , the ground is already suprisingly radioactive from the coal , the radiation is contained with a reactor
Another point with modular, they can go in to coal fired stations. The infrastructure is already in place. This save years of building all the sub stations.
Maybe. Depends if you actually get the idea of modular into reality in actually build some that work. At the moment they are an unrealised idea. Ted said you can build them in 3-5 years but didn’t mention you can’t as none have actually been built.

I don't see why the Labor Government would not consider Nuclear power since we are getting Nuclear powered submarines at some time in the future. So the Nuclear debate is clearly not off the table but for some reason they won't consider Nuclear power plants as part of the energy mix.
