It’s a heckuva improvement on “clean” coal which produces the most greanhouse gases per BTU of any fuel. Nuclear still suffers from the distributed waste issue without a permanent storage facility or closed-loop reprocessing. Solar and wind are the ways to go long term. Solar especially, considering insolation gives a median daily recovery potential of about 1 kWh / m^2.

Intermittent character of wind and solar power production requires additional measures to build stable power system. Backup (fossil fuel) power plants, energy storage solutions. It is not so clear-cut.
