Anyway, lot of civil works need to be built for large scale deployment of solar farms/windmills. They can build facilities to place large batteries at the points of power gen...

How does it matter even if the strike is non nooklear? The launches will be detected by NATO radars that can't tell what warheads are on the missiles, and they will launch their riposte/second strike assuming they are nook tipped coz they are coming from Russia.
