After seeing the windmills in Holland, I didn’t think those bigger ones would really work since there’s little they can do to store the energy. I think they’re only good for churning butter or milling grain. STORE ENERGY!? Does a Nuke store energy?

Does a Nuke store energy? No - it doesn't need to .
When demand falls, you can throttle back a nuke plant.
When demand rises, you can crank up a nuke.
Not so with wind.

Yes, vast amounts of it, which of course, can be released in a controlled or uncontrolled fashion...;)
