How will nuclear power and renewables combine? They compete for the same slice of the grid, the cheapest most inflexible, a competition new built nuclear power loses due to be horrifically expensive.

Thus nuclear power becomes forced into ever more marginalized peaking roles.

Try calculate the cost for a kWh of electricity from a peaking nuclear power plant.
