I guess i'd rather have them waste their money on low CO2 nuclear than on coal. But in reality, I would like them to not waste their money (and time) and build renewables.

Year to date more EVs have been sold in the EU than diesel cars. A few years ago diesel cars made up ~50% of the vehicle mix (now both are around 14%). Technological revolutions can happen really fast!
If they want to waste their money, let em wast their money...
Maybe because it is a bullshit idea based on obsolete technology...
Fuck, thats a lot. Next time hopefully without the economic downturn.
If you want to waste 6/7th of your electricity, sure why not. That doesn't mean its not tremendously stupid*...
*for most applications
Carbon neutral has to mean carbon neutral, its rather easy. If you can't achieve that then you can't advertise with it.
Its nonexistent because its expensive and impractical. Every cent spent for nuclear is a wasted cent because you would get twice the power from renewables. LCOE.
Renewables and storage is what is gonna happen, you can argue against that as much as you want. Growth of renewables is exponential, growth of nuclear is nonexistent.
And hydrogen, and batteries, and overbuilding, and geographic distribution and a lot more but nukeheads gonna nukehead.
Personally, I am very disappointed by this weak "compromise". I did not expect a lot from this meeting in a petro-state overrun by fossil lobbyists but seeing what is now sold as big step is very disheartening.
