Nope, they're only good for base loads except in places like Northfield Mountain where there's amenable geology to support pumped hydro. Running them hotter and wasting the energy at night isn't viable, the quantity of thermal energy requiring dispersion can decimate the local ecology. Storing a significant portion of the overnight generation of a nuke plant is no small feat; the Hornsdale power reserve in Australian (Tesla) stores 129 MWh total.. a single reactor easily produces a gigawatt or more, and typically there are 2+ reactors, so Hornsdale would store less than 1/10 of one hour's generation. Highly reactive sources like rooftop solar or wind farms are going to be required until/unless there's enough storage to smooth out the demand. Right now variable generation (solar, wind) is cheaper than battery storage.

I certainly won't turn down increases in renewables, but small/micro scale pebble bed or thorium salt reactors also seem like they should have a place in the plans. Something the size of a garden shed powering a 20 block radius and good for 15-20 years of output. Big Gains for Tiny Nuclear Reactors

Just recently power watched all seasons of House and made the realization that she's actually a pretty shit character, and not a very good doctor, like 95% of her suggestions are wrong and mostly way off. Guess that's good for working out what something isn't... She's also listed on the intro credits for season 7 and 8, and isn't even in half the episodes. The potato gun where she comes back temporarily was pretty OK, I guess. She is really nice to look at, though.
