But if everybody has an ev, and everybody has their old (80% of new capacity) ev battery for stationary storage, does that not cover everything you want to do?
Renewable energy is so cheap, it makes transmission worthwhile. Consider the Pacific Intertie or this project that will close Indian Point. http://www.chpexpress.com/econ...
Transmission seems to solve almost all the problem with getting renewable energy to match demand. https://news.slashdot.org/stor... Batteries for transportation seem like an automatic big market, but the stationary storage market may not larger than retired car batteries can cover.
When shrub made a mess of the nuclear nonproliferation treaty by trying to sell uranium to India, he opened a Pandora's box of which this mess is perhaps the smallest misfortune. The man had no foresight whatsoever.
The nuclear business in China is state owned and supported by goverment sponsered industrial espionage. It is unsurprising that it would get diplomatic assistance as well. The forcefulness of that aid may only confirm the UKs concern over their involvement.
It is easy to see why you are so confused. My links lead to peer reviewed works. Since you consider such stuff unreliable, you end up wrong more often than not.
New nuclear can't be delivered at less than 16 cents per kwh. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wik... Solar alway comes in at less than 8 and is typically 4 these days.
Even existing reactors can't compete with wind and solar without vast state subsidies. No point in raising electricity costs just to prop up a dying industry.
The US stands in line for the next catastrophe. Owing to the government's liability for loss of property and life through the Price-Anderson Act, during times of recession, the government could become insolvent should the accident occur in high property value areas. The very badly run Indian Point plant is an example.
This is about overloading spent fuel pools. "The NAS report clearly found fault with NRC’s approach to protecting spent fuel pools from severe accidents and terrorist attacks, and largely confirmed the Union of Concerned Scientists’ (UCS) longstanding concerns about the agency’s inadequate response to the danger of spent fuel pool fires. Significantly, the report criticized the regulatory analysis the NRC used to justify rejecting a proposal to expeditiously transfer spent fuel from pools to dry casks."
Well, they obviously don't last long whereas the nuclear figure is for the lifetime generation so much much higher. If you notice though, Hydro Quebec is adding wind capacity.

Driving people have blind spots, so illusion is not required.
On the other hand, it seems like a worse location for a nuclear plant, considering.

Japan has a vast new area of uninhabited land.

No, even the base of the ecosystem has been disrupted. https://www.thestar.com/news/w...
Solar is cheaper per Watt, and more importantly per kwh.

California will soon become nuclear free and all the power will be covered by renewables and efficency. You seem very misinformed.

Good point though.
Which of those are used in RE?
Which minerals are those?
Here is a report of nuclear criminality in France. http://www.thelocal.fr/2016051...
