By the end of next year - there will be greater than 1 terawatt of solar module manufacturing capacity. Far more than any other energy source ever, including accounting for capacity factor. (pv-magazine-usa.com)

And the nuke fanboys will still be fantasising about building a couple of thousand new nukes.

Battery tech isn't at the point where solar can support us during the night and on overcast days. Nuclear is still the most efficient, reliable, and safe form of power production, and modern reactors not built near areas of great geologic activity are very unlikely to cause any kind of nuclear accident.

Batteries are already cheaper than nuclear.
