The PM has made a very specific assertion in the OP and your post has nothing to do with the problem he claims to be addressing. The hurdle is less than 2GW, an amount that could be installed with wind, solar and geothermal in one year or less if they are truly serious about the power supply.



But they aren't really interested in all possible paths to preventing power shortages - they are interested in using the threat of blackouts as a means of coercing the public into accepting the restart of the reactors.
