Nuclear is much more expensive than renewables, and it's so stable and reliable that France has been importing a significant amount of power from Germany in the past two years because they couldn't properly cool their nuclear reactors.

Not to mention how most new nuclear projects go significantly above budget and take much longer to finish than originally planned.
