All of those are constant costs, independent of actually generating energy.
Those are problems, which are solvable by predictable amounts of money. Once you commit to it, they aren't a problem. Real problem is that those look like low hanging fruit to politicians, that love to gut programs, where effect will be seen decades later. We can see this now in France, which was so close to actual energy independency.
>But I'm not really aware of companies pitching solutions anywhere close to solar/wind pricing, even at their current price levels.
Yeah, but those regularly produce energy below 5% capacity factor. You have to compare nuclear to renewables + storage. Once you have solution that can withstand December in Poland - very low solar capacity, low wind capacity - you have something to talk about.
