Exactly my point. Repeating first line of my comment above for added effect:

"Nuclear and renewables are not 1:1 match or comparison.

Different energy sources for different requirements. You want a good mix, not bad mix. Things like periodical negative electricity prices (in Europe) increase the net cost of energy. Excessively high night-time electricity is also harmful (industries, and many other uses require 24/7 energy).
