The average person tends to believe that the experts know what they are doing but this is not always the case. Germany in the early 2000's made the move to go green. Their plan was to replace fossil fuels with wind and solar and simultaneously shut down their nuclear power plants. After they were well into this change they suddenly discovered that they don't have much sunshine and even less wind. Is the US going down the same path. Science shows that the best states for solar power are California, Texas, Arizona and Florida. The best place for wind power is the Midwest. The megalopolis from north of Boston to south of Washington DC is where 50 million people live and their wind and solar power must be brought in on the grid. This is over 1,200 miles solar and wind power. Even if they had sun and wind they have no space for wind and farms. The use of small modular reactors would be ideal for these crowded areas.
