Storage is and still should be a logical step but a thorium reactor can be right in your neighbor Hood the size of a shoe box that runing for a hundred years no refuel. Heat and power safe as can be. All with much less waste and size to build for it's control. Yes we do have renewables they should be exploited as well. We have a reactor at oak ridge tn the secret city we built it ran it for years and abandoned to to make plutonium. For bombs we dare not use. That the choice we made. This was only the choice of the day. We spend the money and fix this for a hundred years while we build the grid to use what we found in the last hundred years. Building it is the fight for our lives. including all of us is the only honest answer we have left. Since FDR. MLK we built the roads? The damns Niagra falls Hoover sent a man to the moon. Republicans and Democrats stand in our way we must end them. Yellow vests anyone?
