[Boiler Plate]

Nobody but this idiot author thinks having 80% of our generating capacity in nuclear is a bad idea. The reason nukes are run flat out is because they are the cheapest most economical source of power except hydro. Unlike hydro you don't have to pray for rain. Hoover dam is running about half capacity for obvious reasons.

Nukes can and ARE throttled back all the time. However to counter this moron's complaints there are so many excellent ways to use the off peak power such as back bay hydro plants, water desalination, ice storage for city chiller loops, hydrogen production and on and on.

This knucklehead is totally speaking out of his ass, and clearly has an agenda other than what is best for America

You summed it up nicely.
