"The researchers, using World Bank and International Energy Agency data covering 1990-2014, found that nuclear and renewables tend to exhibit lock-ins and path dependencies that crowd each other out, identifying a number of ways in which a combined nuclear and renewable energy mix is incompatible."
It would have been preferable to look at a slightly wider or later window, e.g. 1995-2019, as renewables (and batteries) seem to decrease in price with each year, and the Fukushima disaster was in 2011, which probably casts a shadow over the final years of that range.
