Nuclear needs battery backup

Uh oh.

Turns out the Dud's favorite power generator example needs battery backup .


" Ontario’s grid is dominated by nuclear power, which provides 53 per cent of its electricity. Solar provides less than one per cent of grid production and wind less than 8.2 per cent, underlying the fact that even grids dominated by less flexible “baseload” power need, or want, battery storage to shift excess power to where it is needed most.
