    Nuclear energy can not be used to “plug gaps”. The power thatbit produces can not be varied very quickly. The goal should be to only have renewable in the end.

      What I meant by gaps was that nuclear can be used in areas where solar or wind is not feasible yet or in areas where solar or wind cannot fulfill the energy demands.

      Also we have very good control over nuclear power generation. There are a variety of methods using which we can control the reaction rate of the fission process
