Renewables will not nearly cover the demand from massively increasing AI DC loads. Sure they can help and PV is fast to market, but nuclear and thermal PP's are absolutely the bedrock of the system and need to be ramped signifiantly with new builds. No one talks about the massively increased cost to consumers also from grid reinforcement to accomodate e.g. offshore wind. The system losses from congestion are in the billions. Does not even get a mention. Remember it's consumers who pick up the tab - it is baked into our bills.
