Most of the solution is solar and wind. Everyone knows this. It's why people commenting about nuclear will go out of their way to only mention one of them in any specific comment.
It sometimes feels like the internet has one group of nuclear fans who have never heard of wind power and another group who have never heard of solar. It's tiring to deal with.

Most people who want nuclear power want it for base load and the rest renewables
There isn't one fix all.
For example, Australia has loads of land perfect for solar, even in the winter.
Meanwhile, much of Canada is too dark, and has too much night for solar in the winter.
Some countries have loads of tidal power, and others are land locked -- no tides!
We need loads of solutions, options, and costs to transition.
