Nuclear is not just a little bit more expensive but more like an order of magnitude. And as cost for renewables continues to drop, that might turn into two orders of magnitude. Small nuclear reactors might reduce the cost a little; but a little is not nearly enough. Cost needs to come down by at least an order of magnitude for it to at least somewhat keep up. Anything else is just not going to be cost competitive. And that's a problem when renewables are still dropping rapidly in price.
