Even outsourcing production doesn’t completely remove the need for building and installing new energy infrastructure. As others have pointed out, renewables failed to actually make any positive impact to date.

I didn’t say you wouldn’t need new energy infrastructure. Obviously you do, but not for building the same.

Saying renewables haven’t made any positive impact is just blatantly ignorant.
What’s blatantly ignorant is claiming that current renewables policies had any significant impact on emissions in Europe.
it requires energy, but not really locally, since we outsourced production;
nuclear is a castle in the air for the next two decades, requires energy as well and is more expensive

Same goes for France and nuclear power.
