Atoms, Wind, and a Very Expensive Argument

A four-hour grid battery in Australia now delivers power for roughly a third of the price of a new gas peaker plant. This episode breaks down the real cost numbers behind Australia's nuclear-versus-renewables debate, straight from CSIRO's own GenCost data, including the genuine pushback from nuclear advocates on how those numbers get calculated, and why gas peakers are losing ground to batteries even on their own turf.

Look! Squirrel! Your attention span is selective, not short.
