Is Cobalt free PV available in a timescale that means it can still beat nuclear? If not it's kind of irrelevant.

How much cobalt is used in a PV panel? I believe that question leads you to the answer.

(i personally prefer lfp due to lower thermal runaway risk for stationary storage applications; the lack of expensive conflict minerals and lower costs are a cherry on top)
