      Wait until the next “price cap” in three months… and the one after that in six months… and the one after that in nine months (that’ll raise the cap even higher). It’s a con-game and we’re the suckers.

        We’ll have a clean grid by 2030, the reliance on gas will be minimal when renewables are providing energy at zero marginal cost. With renewables the fuel is free and predictable over a 25 year period.

        Still need a nuclear base load, preferably thorium.

          And, of course, energy prices will fall incredibly and they’ll never be the need for price caps ever again and the “clean” nuclear waste can be recycled into toys and distributed to children to play with in this New Jersusalem.

            Not sure you can call depleted uranium shells toys, but I suppose it depends on your perspective
