Traditional nuclear plants are simply too expensive to build.
They are not competitive, and haven't been for decades if I'm not mistaken.
It's not impossible that a new design could be cheaper, but figuring in both development, test, and time for industrialization, we're probably at least 20 years from that. Meanwhile, both PV and wind are falling in price from industrialization.
