Its not cheaper if you only count the generation side you are ignoring Storage and Capacity factor those in and its not cheaper anymore.

Cost per kW:

Nuclear: $6,695–7,547

Solar PV with storage: $1,748

You ran for the hills when I called out your mistruths earlier. You’re still lying.

Here’s more:

“Roughly speaking, the total cost of these solar-plus-storage facilities would be:

$8.4 billion for 10.55 GWdc of solar power, fully installed at 80¢/watt $527 million for hypothetical power grid upgrades at 5¢/Watt $7.8 billion for 39.3 GWh of energy storage fully installed at $200/kWh Around $16.8 billion grand total, no incentives So, Georgia, pv magazine USA just saved you more than $13 billion (as of today anyway).”
