    For me, it’s not a choice, you need all of them. None of these technologies can alone feed the huge energy appetites of data-centres.

    Tidal power is under-exploited today and has huge potential. Nuclear and bio-diesel could have complementary huge roles. Wind-power is 100x less efficient than tidal, but it can be used inland.

    I just want people to do their sums. Politicians are today planning nuclear plants, but forgetting about the huge fallout from decommissioning and toxic waste.

      Yeah, it’s gotta be all of the above. We don’t have time to eliminate viable options just because they have some downsides.
