Here in NL the tide is slowly turning in favor of adding more nuclear to the mix. It's getting increasingly clear that wind and solar alone are not going to cut it, after the low hanging fruit has been picked. There's simply no space for the required overcapacity if we want to be self sufficient.
Currently, we're getting so much of our base load from coal, it's embarrassing. We'll probably have a mix of wind, rooftop solar, natural gas and nuclear in the future. Dumping excess energy as hydrogen -> methane in our huge natural gas grid.
