Transmission

Mark Twain said, the more I know about people, the better I like my dog. That is the way I feel about climate change. The more I know about wind and solar, the better I like my nuclear. Just take one aspect and that is getting the power from the source to the use point. The best wind is in the Midwest basically from Texas north to the Dakotas. The use point is the megacities in the northeast. This means 2,000 miles of transmission lines. The best sun is in the southwest and the use points are the west coast cities. This is 1,000 miles of transmission lines. Small nuclear reactors are placed near the use point eliminating the need for transmission lines
