Not at all. Nuclear’s terrible at ramping up for short term loads like in-fill gaps. Gas can be idle most of the time and then fired up as required. You don’t want to be relying on it most of the time but for in-fill it’s cheaper and better than nuclear.
Talk to me when it’s all battery and no gas. That’s what nuclear would be replacing, not the renewables. Nuclear and solar/wind complement each other.
