Also not even an advantage.

France has nuclear capacity for 550TWh/yr at nameplate for a load of 420-500TWh/yr and several neighboring countries that let them use hydro for storage.

They still produce 40-50TWh from dispatchable sources.

If storage is impossible, then we better build more wind and solar instead of nuclear.
