There is a difference between turning off nuclear reactors completely while there is not enough renewals to replace them and diverging investment money from renewables by creating a sustainability label to something that causes likely a lot of cost in the future and is risky. In end both maybe wrong .
(Although I believe personally that it makes sense to turn off nuclear reactors, because of the overall cost: waste, reactor shutdown costs and cost related to security and risks: it only takes one fatal failure to add alot of cost. If actually operators would pay for all the costs and include them in the pricing it would be another story. However, currently nuclear power cost are hardly calcultable and commonly the public will pay for it )
