It’s not ideal as it’s more expensive than alternatives, and slower. I’m not making the decision so it doesn’t matter.
But i will say Australia just made the decision that nuclear has no place and China built a lot of nuclear then stopped and started rolling out renewables.
It may not reduce the delta, but we gotta cover the base load somehow. Nuclear is ideal for that job.

I don’t think 100% renewable is the way to go, given that energy output can vary.
And as long as any amount of fossil fuels are left in the energy supply chain, I’d rather they be replaced with nuclear. Even if it’s more expensive.
Perhaps not directly, but assuming you live in a democracy your vote does matter.
