The comparison is with solar and wind, and there seem to be enough solutions between interconnects, overcapacity, batteries, demand modulations and others for nuclear to not be valuable even to solve intermittency. Here's a simulation for how an 100% solar+wind+battery grid would work and be cheap: https://www.rethinkx.com/energy https://www.rethinkx.com/energy And here's the same reasoning used to argue that even the already built gas, coal, nuclear and hydro assets are overvalued: https://www.rethinkx.com/energy-lcoe https://www.rethinkx.com/energy-lcoe I've seen other simulations that weren't as extreme and ended up keeping the hydro we have as generation as well as grid scale batteries and even some gas to fill a few moments in time. What I haven't seen is any simulation that makes new nuclear build make sense.
