This chart shows you what America’s energy transition is really about: swapping coal for a lot of gas and a bit of wind and solar. One wonders how much nuclear would have tempered the gas surge if the U.S. had stayed the course after Fukushima.

From '04 to '24, China added ~370m megawatt-hours of nuclear. To replace the added gas generation, we would've had to more than 3x China's nuclear program. That's a big number.
