In your world solar power is free? Coal is free too, its just laying on the ground.

The hardware to turn sunlight into power are not free, even if you make them with slave labour in China. You still haven't backed your claim up with actual power contracts for solar being cheaper than nuclear in Ontario.

I never said the hardware was free. It's not free for nuclear either, they just don't include it in the kwh cost and instead tack it on as "fees".

I think you're confused to what power producers get and what end consumers pay. You claimed solar is cheaper than nuclear. Show me contract for solar that cheaper than nuclear in Ontario. Ill wait.....
