There is no such beast as clean, consistent energy: The mining of battery components, manufacture of those components, the energy required to "fuel" them during their life-cycle and the eventual disposal of all the battery components is hardly clean.
As well, solar technology requires much the same manufacturing and disposal issues that battery technology represents. Storage of solar power for use during peak hours and during non-solar cycles often rely on battery technology.
I am a big nuke fan, as is all of Europe. Before you flame, do your homework about waste disposal, chance of a core meltdown, etc.
We need a non-Nimby, reasonable look across the spectrum of energy solutions. Then imagine that this Senate and administration had one.
