It's not a simple topic, and this sort of depends on how much you value cheap energy vs. safety.
If we want fossil fuels to be as safe and non-destructive to the environment as nuclear energy (as it currently is), it would probably become very uncompetitive compared to even current nuclear.
Of course fossil fuels are necessary for wind & solar to function, so that's not happening.
Nuclear is cheap, safe, reliable, better than basically everything else, ect. We just tacked on unnecessary regulation to make opening new plants de-facto impossible

If we deregulated nuclear it would still not be cost competitive with other energy sources.
