Where to start?

Honestly it's difficult to provide essential foundational texts as things are moving so quickly.

I would recommend the energy transition podcast as a layperson entry point. (not implying that you're a layperson)

The first episode is about limits of renewables to the grid. NREL as an organization is probably then the best technical writing about renewable energy potential.

Key point is that technical innovation and the business cases for renewables are rapidly improving the outlook for renewable integration. Meanwhile nuclear is probably the only technology in human history that appears to be a negative learning curve. The costs of nuclear energy are getting higher over time!
