>>the most efficient solar panels can maybe push about 30% efficiency, while a shitty nuclear power plant can top 66-70% energy efficiency easily

You're a fucking retard with no idea what you're talking about.

Experimental solar cells have around 25% efficiency, consumer grade solar cells around 17-18% at the moment, maybe 20% if you want to be generous.

Meanwhile, nuclear power plants are around 35% efficiency, give or take a few percent. You need high temperature nuclear power plants for efficiency up to 70% because the Carnot's rule is a bitch.
