Nuclear is an expensive and slow to deploy 12g/kWh, so unlikely to match incrementally added renewables by sheer opportunity cost alone. We need to reduce CO2

Nuclear is an expensive and slow to deploy 12g/kWh, so unlikely to match incrementally added renewables by sheer opportunity cost alone.
We need to reduce CO2 today. Your average nuclear plant takes 7.5 years to complete.
I don't think that in current circumstances the cost of reducing emissions is lower for nuclear.
