Thanks for the response! It is a challenging question and one which might have many answers. As an analyst and engineer in the renewable sector in Europe, I find it somewhat disheartening how nuclear is viewed, where countries like Germany are decommissioning nuclear before coal.
I don’t understand why the Renewable sector to date has distanced itself from nuclear where I believe that there is a high level of complinetarity in a future electrified energy system incorporating high levels of renewables with supporting levels of nuclear

Two of the biggest criticisms of nuclear are the length of time it takes to complete a fission reactor (Hinckley Point C, Flammanville, and others) and the costs of these projects, especially ignored/forgotten costs associated with decommissioning. How does the industry address these issues to build confidence in project timelines, project costs, and competitive cost of energy for the future?
