The French are finding out that combining nuclear power with unstable wind and sun is not a good idea and is a risk to the power grid. Spain recently had to learn a similar lesson in a most painful manner.

“With a resource portfolio that includes a substantial amount of solar [panels], the risk of supply shortfall is associated with summer evening periods when demand is high and solar output is diminished.”

I think that this assertion of wind and solar electricity generation being “cheapest” definitely has the claim for the number one spot.

They can be very confident that no one in their circles will ever check the math to see if the numbers add up.

They are destroying their economy, and have almost nothing to show for two decades and hundreds of billions of dollars invested in the useless wind and solar farms.
