That's fair. Im big solar fanboy but if more people were fusion researchers the world wouldnt be a worse place.

Fusion is self sustained and highly scalable.

If it was practical we wouldn't need the other forms, except for places not serviced by electrical grids.

Fission takes a long time to build and finance. It hasn't been invested enough in. We need more green energy to replace fossil fuels faster than governments can get fusion plants up. That's why wind, solar and hydro are and should be the preference.

Hydro needs the right geography. Solar and wind need the right local weather. Solar great in a California desert, but terrible in Scotland where wind and hydro are very effective.

There some cases where a specific technology is the best and clearest option. But when fission becomes reliable, it will cover the vast majority of use cases in the highly Industrialised nations. Everything else will be niche.

Why limit yourself like some kind of console fanboy?

Propaganda by solar bros.

It's only the solar bros doing this because you can sell solar to the average idiot. Most people can't own other forms of clean energy generation directly.

As more solar is installed, the less power input we need to provide. There will be a point where all solar power required to make a solar panel will be produced by solar panels

We could massively subsidize home battery storage and this wouldn't be an issue at all. Microgrids are the future anyway. The only reason why storage is an issue now is because it needs to be centralized. Once we get away from that tons of new possibilities open up.

We have all the technology for energy storage we need, it just needs to be built. Theres gravity storage like pumped hydro, pressure storage, thermal storage, flywheels.
