And yet no one with money to invest in the energy sector is caring to put a dime into new nuclear. They looked at their options and picked the one that doesn’t have a long history of cost and schedule overruns.

Which material do you think will be the limiting factor on photovoltaic production?

Lol, no. Besides the fact that we’ve barely started scaled production of perovskite cells, and that we’re still working out their longevity issues, their main advantage is that the materials used are cheap and abundant.

It’s not even the most prominent means of production yet. It’s about at the same level as SMRs, which are years away if they work at all.
Edit: also, you’re thinking of perovskite minerals. What the yet-to-be solar panels use is perovskite crystal structures, which are abundant as hell.
