Yes, but they are unreliable. Nuclear is an amazing option for base loads, and then adding renewables on top of that just makes sense. Battery energy storage is still insanely expensive, so nuclear is a very valid alternative in countries that haven’t let their nuclear production capabilities fall off to the point of taking decades.
Our target speed (the speed you are recommended to drive) is faster than the US speed limit.
I mean, it’s a nice tickling in the balls when you engage the warp drive on your way home. But it also inspires a lot of amateur race car drivers. Nah, I can do without.
Instead of starting a list of those things and ending up with my App crashing, I will name the one thing I think the US does better.
I think having a speed limit on your highways is kinda a sane thing to have.
Speed limits are great until some idiot decides to follow it.
And nuclear energy
(Germany I guess)
Even when ignoring environmental concerns and purely looking at it from a financial perspective: Renewable energy is more profitable already.

Hydro power can be great for baseload and storage
You definitely have to ignore ecological concerns when talking about hydro.
There is no 100% clean energy, but hydro is pretty good
Agreed, but it is so incredibly geography dependant that you can’t really generalize with it.
Why?
Thats not a speed limit. That’s a speed minimum.

I say minium because if you’re not doing it you’ll get hell from all drivers around you and realistically everyone is pushing 10 over.
