If you'd add the cost of maintaining radioactive waste for thousands of years on the cost of power, you'd end up with even higher prices and how do you think those reactors came into existence in the first place? Not even Bill Gates wants to pay for his reactor by himself. Here are state subsidies for energy sources in Germany in Billion: https://i.imgur.com/NbaNLK4.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/NbaNLK4.jpeg Than there is maintenance. EDF will have to pay staggering 100 billion € to increase the life of their fleet for another 10 years and the price won't go down in the future. Even though the fleet is quite well maintained and France relies on it, accidents, overheated rivers, too cold winters force them to buy (often dirty) power from Germany. LCOE for nuclear is only surpassed by peak gas: https://i.imgur.com/gRj8GS0.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/gRj8GS0.jpeg https://zenodo.org/record/5573719 https://zenodo.org/record/5573719 So yeah...number juggling is quite trendy in Shillenbergers Astro-Turf but it won't change the facts: nuclear is too expensive and too slow to fight climate change.
