Data centres, crypto mining, AI, three modern innovations that could not exist without huge supplies of electricity.

And Amazon has just confirmed (actions speak louder than words) that its power isn't going to come from intermittent windmills and solar, it's going to come from its own nuclear reactors.

Well, I guess if it's good enough for Amazon, it's good enough for me. Small Modular Reactors do seem to be taking the low-carbon market by storm, and for practical reasons - intermittency is death to our electricity supply grid.

Is some semblance of good sense slowly starting to emerge from the promoters of "renewables"?

Is nuclear now "renewable"
