Nuclear LCOE (levelized cost of electricity) is comparable with utility PV and on-shore wind but still cheaper than off-shore wind or residential PV, when compared directly.
Nuclear is much cheaper when you want to deliver 24/7 electricity, in which case wind/PV needs to be coupled with batteries (very expensive) or coal/gas (dirty)
There’s ~30 countries producing uranium worldwide, including many Western or pro-Western countries.
The fact that Russia has been investing in nuclear power while Germany has been investing in Russian gas and Chinese PV only testifies to the stupidity/corruption of the German leadership granted that they now mostly run on coal. npub1llzxpc6c3w92hczu49dsxcfqkp5tl9f5e30urrgf2v8tqnu7pkgsww08cq (npub1llz…08cq)
