"Or we can forget all that rubbish and put some solar farms and wind farms on the ground for a massively cheaper price which will chug away for 20 years and see what comes out in technology in the next couple of decades"
You obviously live on a different planet(fairyland) the big lie that renewables are cheaper has been debunked so many times lately, the countries that have the largest penetration of renewables have the highest electricity costs.
The costings for renewables only ever include inadequate amounts of storage, they omit to include the cost of thousands of additional transmission lines to collect it all and omit that they have to be 100% backed up by gas peakers.
Do they even factor in the 35% capacity factor(for wind) that means you have to overbuild by 3 times to get a similar output to the coal generator that is being replaced?
