Nor does it cover costs.
A chart with cost per year per terrawatthour produced would probably have an even higher bar for solar and nuclear would likely not be visible at all.

Depends greatly on the gen of the nuclear plant. Gen 2's that only use 5% of fuel (Canadian designs not withstanding) have rather high costs due to fuel and downtime to refuel. Gen 3 is getting better, depending on the type. Gen 4, which normally use 80% or more of their fuel, would be dirt cheap to run.

I'd like to see such a chart.
