    I think this is mostly interesting for repurposing existing fossile fuel powerplants.

    Add a relatively small geothermal power-plant on site for baseload demand plus a well sized grid battery and you can continue using a lot of the existing infrastructure of these older powerplants.

    Due to security requirements this will not work with nuclear, even when using (largely theoretical) small modular reactors.
