How long will it take to build all those nuclear plants? Not sure there’s enough time. It seems rapid deployment of solar where its most effective would be the quickest route to effect change.
About 7.5 years if you start them all at the same time.

How long would it take to deploy that solar energy system, as well as figuring out a storage solution to overcome the problem of the duck curve?
Solar farms can be deployed at large scale in less than three years. Here’s India adding 7 MW in that timeframe: https://www.greenlaunches.com/alternative-energy/less-three-...
We do have lots of solar panels and lots of solar panel manufacturing capacity. I don’t think we have the nuclear resources we need to produce as fast.
And solar only covers half of the day anyway.
