Safety is no longer the reason Nuclear is not worth it.
The sun is a giant, free nuclear fusion plant in the sky. We can capture 1/5th of its output per square meter. For free!
The wind -- caused by solar heating -- also generates free power.
The cost of harvesting it is now so low, and will always continue to decline as any technology will, that any fuel-based generation mechanism is going to be rendered uneconomic with time alone. They depreciate faster as time goes on!
Investing in any such generator needs to be for other reasons like land scarcity.
