That is not evidence for your claim.

I don't think you even know what your claim is.






Your reading comprehension issues aren’t my fault.

I’ve been saying nuclear is regularly unavailable to produce power for extended periods making it unreliable over long timescales.

I bring up long term capacity factors being much lower than your claimed ~95% as a sign of this.

I point to many nuclear power plants currently unable to produce power for an extended period.

Things don’t get much simpler than that.


Reading is not the problem. What you don't seem to understand is that you repeatedly writing something does not actually make it true.

In fact, given your record here, you repeatedly writing something is a pretty good indicator of it being false.

And this claim of yours remains absurdly false, no matter how often you repeat it.

You point to the past, which is completely irrelevant, and you point to single plants, which is also completely irrelevant, as the fleet is pretty large. The total and current capacity factor for nuclear power in the US is in the 90s.

Doesn't get much simpler than that.

And you've yet to produce an electricity source with a higher capacity factor.

Because you can't.

Because your claim is simply not true.

And will remain untrue no matter how often you repeat it or how many other irrelevant stats you pull.

Capacity. Factor. 90s.
