That's #nuclown nonsense. Given the very long response time of nuclear it's not going to effectively back anything up. It's laughably long build time and cost means just improve the grid:
You live in some 20th century phantasy without #demandresponse, #V2G, #sodiumion or #kineticstorage.

#SodiumIon at 175Wh/kg ( #CATL #Naxtra) or about 6kg/kwh put an 8kwh pack at 48kg, still too heavy for ordinary hand #batteryswap. But 2kwh is within the 40lb/18kg limit usually cited in ergonomics in the West, good enough for a 2026-30 #urbanmoped or #ruralebike.

#ZincAir #AuminumlAir #ironAir #battery rely on cheaper materials, thus promise to augnent #sodiumion, #lithiumion & #ZincSulfur chemistries or #ThermalStorage.
#EVbatterypack standards now cover 512, 128, 32, 8, 2, 0.5 kilowatt levels fairly well, via #batteryswap.
Misnomered #RareEarth minerals are entirely unnecessary. The future of storage belongs to tech like #SOdiumIon and #BiologicalBatteries, easily manufactured from materials available aplenty, worldwide.

CATL’s new 45 kWh sodium-ion battery, now in mass production, could be a game-changer for EV affordability & range! Boasting 175Wh/kg & 10,000+ cycles, this tech promises longer-lasting, more accessible electric vehicles. #electricvehicles #sodiumion #EVtech

Older chemistries like #sodiumsulfur were historically the best performing in Wh/kg, though not the best lifespan.

I expect that to be re examined as much #zincsulfur and #sodiumion may apply to that chemistry also. #AluminumAir was a reliable telecom backup also.
Sodium ion #CATL #Naxtra at 175Wh/kg.
#Sodiumion & #zincsulfur at 5-10M km in vehicle use, building on NMC & LiFePo battery management research. Graphene & borophene may actually do better, and twisting carbon nanotubes like a rubber band actually compacts mechanical well.
#Battery good enough.
Well:
- #zincsulfur & #sodiumion need no lithium
- much more bird habitat is lost to fossil
- #agrisolar can undo #desertification

#StrongSell #Tesla no longer competitive in any market with the #SlatePickup, #KiaPV5, many #Huawei (Audi Toyota VW) #Xiomi #CATL #BYD partners arriving. Even Ford has a 400V low cost EV line coming.
Tesla #gridstorage laid down to secure #lithium drops with every #zincsulfur & #sodiumion sold.
#Electricdrive has ended the ICE for good.
#SodiumIon is good to any habitable temperature. This transition is final. Hybrids will fail on complexity. They won't last 50 years like pure sealed EV, nor 20 like a good open framed ICE, maybe 10 before parts & labour make it infeasible.

You are aware that #carbonnanotube, #Graphene and #sodiumion and other common-molecule materials, plus the dropping cost of recycling, are quickly eliminating the critical materials gap?
I've posted a few times about sodium ion batteries, and one of the things I've consistently said is that they're much cheaper than lithium ion;
