I will believe it when I see it. The only countries with both cheap and clean electricity are those that built out extensive nuclear or got lucky enough to have access to other forms of cheap base load like hydro / geothermal.
Australia would disagree: https://www.energy.gov.au/news/new-energy-plan-daily-window-...
As an Australian I can say that for me personally the free energy periods have been amazing and are an example of the functional free markets making life better for the average person.
Australia hasn't shot itself in the foot like EU's self inflicted policies.
Becaude, as we all know, taxpayer-funded == free.
And we banned nuclear, since it's scary.
It's not taxpayer funded, the grid has an overabundance of daytime solar that exceeds their capacity to store it.
