Using the figures on the ourworldindata page, not many more than with nuclear. Nuclear, hydro, wind and PV all have fatality rates two orders of magnitude below fossil fuels' (per TWh generated).
Renewables are about three times as safe on the evidence - the difference between one fatality every 14 years vs 1 every 50-odd years, compared to tens every year for fossils (again, per TWh each year).
