For example the biggest Battery Storage in germany is happening this year https://www.diesachsen.de/en/economy/germanys-largest-battery-storage-facility-launches-near-leuna-3169138

And we will see more and more of projects like these in the next years.

Like even Texas is investing into Renewables + Battery Storage. Even they get it

Too bad this also slows down their renewable energy projects, which would make it cheaper. But Nuclear Reactors + renewables is a bad combination. Nuclear Reactors can’t be adjusted to renewable energy, because you can’t just shut them down when the renewables producing lots of cheap energy. Nuclear Plants always have to keep running, which is also expensive.

They have to export because you can’t just shut down a Nuclear Reactor. So they sell it for cheap to other countries. It would be more expensive for them to shut down a reactor because they produce too much. The other countrys gladly take the cheap energy. But france doesn’t really make profit with this, it’s just less expensive for them.

Nuclear and renewables are not good together. You can’t adjust the output of Nuclear to the up and downs of renewables. Nuclear is a lot more expensive than Renewables. So Nuclear have always to be running, which makes the price go up. You can’t build more renewables to make the price go down if you have Nuclear running.

The cheapest way is to have renewables produce energy and store it in batteries.
