The fundamental problem as i see it:
Nuclear is profitable/possible only at large scale,
it cannot 'scale down', unlike e.g. wind/wave turbines
you can't buy a mini-reactor because the industry is very regulated(and for a very obvious reasons).
the closest scaled-down nuclear has got is RITEG , which was built without these regulations(and would horrify Americans as much recreational nukes).
