Nuclear energy mostly didn't get a real try. If we had made less over all safety laws around it, it would likely eclipse Fossil fuel generation already. Nuclear energy has also had a bunch of recent advances. These plants don't solve the same problems. Nuclear has many advantages in some places.
Right , with modern designs, nuclear is safer, cleaner, and more advanced than ever. That’s why it keeps proving its value.
But you pointed out that nuclear did get a real try in China, and even there it's growing much slower than solar or wind. None of nuclear's advantages matter almost everywhere. The reality is the nuclear is a dead end technology and eventually every country that tries it gives up on it.
France is going relatively strong. Many many countries have never given nuclear a try because of non-proliferation policies in many places outside the west. Without the threat of nuclear weapons being created in new reactors this isn't a problem.
