The surprising thing is that with a rare exceptions (like in Finland) people who have money to invest don't believe that investing in nuclear power will actually make them a profit.

We know the price of CO2 will just go up and up. We know how hard it is to create a base load with wind/solar and storage.

Yet nobody with money believes it is worth investing in nuclear.

Of course, looking at Hinkley Point C, Olkiluoto, Flamanville makes it very clear why nobody wants to invest in nuclear power.

I think the biggest reason is public opinion (by idiots who don't know what they are talking about and just think nuclear bad because they've been conditioned to think so by decades of misinformation) driving politics in the wrong directions possibly meaning that any plants built may be forced to shut down before they've been operational long enough to offset the construction costs and become profitable.
