Cost of German Solar is Four Times Finnish Nuclear

1. "The Breakthrough Institute"?

You might as well use the Heritage Foundation as a source.

Since I refuse to click their site, I'm just going to point out the obvious gimmicks they used that are included in what you posted.

Why 20 years? The solar panels will still be producing electricity for at least a couple of more decades than that and it will, literally, be free.

Why just solar? Solar is a peaking resource. To perform the same peaking function with nuclear you'd need to curtail the amount of time the nuclear plant runs dramatically, consequently causing the price of its electricity to skyrocket.

Again, why solar? Solar - especially German solar installed in the timeframe listed - is an emerging technology that has delivered a staggering decrease in costs over the time period in question. By what amount has the cost of nuclear declined during that same period? How much more will it rise going forward? There is certainly no indication that nuclear's price has peaked.
