They have scraped their 100% renewables target in favour of nuclear energy.

Which is crazy given they have all the resources they will ever need and more free space than they could ever dream of using.

I'll ask again - what makes you hallucinate they have abandoned renewables?

Hardly irrelevant.

They have abandoned it to hit their target. Not hard to grasp is it blue run ?

100% target...?Lol. Never going to happen.
Massively irrelevant in terms of continued enewables usage.
Nothing to see here.

Funny how other larger countries make a do without nuclear power.

Nuclear Power in Sweden - World Nuclear Association

Sweden's nuclear power reactors provide about 40% of its electricity. In 1980, the government decided to phase out nuclear power but this policy was repealed in June 2010. In 2015 decisions were made to close four older reactors by 2020, removing 2.8 GWe net.

So after 40 years Sweden have done a u turn and are back at the 80’s dream.

This and your thread title are wrong (or at least misleading). To say going back to nuclear in Sweden is some "80s dream" as you put it is bizarre and wrong. In 2010, they voted to repeal the policy.

The referendum was ignored, as it was non-binding, and found to be the wrong decision. Something the UK could have learned, but didn't ;) .
In another post you put:
Sweden aren’t using renewables to hit their target, but instead going back to nuclear energy. Which isn’t good for the planet.

This is also wrong in every way.
Their target is "Sweden has set a target to become carbon neutral by 2045. Electricity demand in the country is expected to reach 300 terawatt-hours by 2040. "
Not 100% renewables.

Sweden adopts new fossil-free target, making way for nuclear

Sweden’s parliament has voted to change its 100% renewable target to a 100% fossil-free target, leaving the door open for nuclear.

They already use very little fossil fuels, as they have good renewable and nuclear power. As demand is set to increase (due in no small part to EVs), it makes sense to have enough nuclear power to cover baseload supply.

Nuclear power is safer than any other energy source, and the only people who oppose it are more concerned with fear than the environment. It uses less materials (concrete , steel etc) than other energy sources, provides baseload supply, and has a smaller footprint.

Nuclear power is good for the planet compared with other energy sources.

Just because Sweden has some rare earth metals, does mean they should go 100% renewable. It makes no sense from energy resource management, and no sense from an economic point of view (imagine having huge numbers of wind turbines sat idle.)

He's phrasing his bullsheite in such a way that he can troll for hours. All Sweden have done is failed to reach or will fail to reach 100% renewable. Impossible anyway.
He's using words like abandon in the same sentence as renewables in a poorly thought out troll attempt.
Ignore the moron.
