MAKE SURE YOU DOWNLOAD THE 2D HOUR, WHICH GOES FOR TWO HOURS.  

THE FIRST HOUR IS JUST A SINGLE HOUR, & WE WON’T USE IT ON TODAY’S PRN.LIVE BROADCAST.  THANKS!!



>
> A COMPREHENSIVE DEEP DIVE INTO A SMALL MODULAR RENEWABLE SOLARTOPIA WITH AMORY LOVINS et. al.
>
>
> Our Earth-Shattering GREEP zoom #157 takes us on a unique two-hour journey into the brave new world of renewable energy.
>
> We start with LINDA SEELEY of the Mothers for Peace, who updates us on the multi-front fight to shut California’s Diablo Canyon Nukes.
>
> The great SCOTT DENMAN then takes us through monumental collapse of NuScale’s Small Modular Reactor scam. 
>
> NuScale has been at the center of the so-called “Nuclear Renaissance” for large reactors which collapsed 2007-2012.
>
> That fantasy gave way to a “resurgence” of Small Modular Reactors which has just collapsed.
>
> NuScale went to Utah municipal utilities to buy into the SMR scam.
>
> But this past week, as Scott tells us, the SMR scam has collapsed.
>
> Great green guru AMORY LOVINS follows with a magnificent overview of the global conversion to renewable energy.
>
> Carbon + cost + speed are the keys to the green transition, he says.
>
> Renewables have added 986x net capacity than nuclear in 2022, he says.
>
> In September 2022-October 2023, solar is running way faster than anybody can keep up with, he adds.
>
> With an “integrate design,” and an “unimaginably big” cornucopia of renewables, we can meet our de-carbonization goals.
>
> New grid materials brighten the equation.
>
> Big reactors now cost 5-8x renewables; small reactors are 20-32x more expensive than renewables, even with mass production.
>
> Solar and wind generate “variably” in predictable ways, widening the cost gap nukes must overcome to match renewables.
>
> “Baseload” from nuclear has now become both obsolete and detrimental.
>
> Lovins cites ten means of firming supply/demand reliability at extremely low cost compared to fossil/nukes.
>
> JUSTIN LEBLANC, RON LEONARD, WENDI LEDERMAN and MYLA RESON join in on the discussion.
>
> We also hear from ROY MORRISON on how to do community-owned renewable power.
>
> Amory also recommends X-Change at RMI.org and Applied Hope on renewables and cars.
>
> At the end we learn it’s Amory’s birthday, contributing to the truly beautiful, powerful spirit of this gathering.
>
> Don’t miss it!!!  & we’ll see you in Solartopia…..
