"Nuclear won't win, because it's expensive and doesn't scale well."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_largest_power_stations

I see several nuclear plants on that list, but not one solar or wind plant.

I think perhaps claims about the latter being "less expensive" and "scaling well" should wait until they've actually been economically operated at scale.
