Of course when you run AC over long distances you lose power, and you have to put in substations to juice it back up and those are expensive, and you get more power lines that can be blown down in storms like the one we had yesterday blowing 74 MPH.
With nukes you build power plants over all the place like we already do. Every major city has at least one power plant already, it’s not that tough. Since any other type of power plant can produce hundred of times more energy in the same amount of real estate as a wind farm. And they can keep running during inclement weather. Nobody throttles nuke plants, the just change how much power is going to capacitors for emergency use.
Sorry but no other power plant has the problems of windmills. Windmills are a joke.
One power plant per city, how do you refuel...oh....I guess you need transmission lines.
