I worked on industrial solar grid power plants.
The problem with solar is the battery technology hasn't caught up with what can be harvested from the sun via solar panels. There isn't a viable way to store it to be available for what the grid demands.
I'm also hesitant to call it a "green" technology when the rare metals required to make the solar panels and batteries make quite a bit of pollution and require slavery mining in Africa.
Nuclear is the way forward 100%
