Yeah, Nuclear is having a tough time competing with the low prices of natural gas.

But it's the best option for clean, renewable energy.

It's MUCH worse for Wind and Solar.

From your article:

"More problematically, wind and solar are intermittent sources of energy — the sun isn’t always shining, and the wind isn’t always blowing. They can’t replace nuclear (or gas or coal) as baseload sources until utility-scale battery technology is developed and built out. That’s still years away."

Aren't you types all for banning oil?

If so, Nuclear is your only legit option.
And

Wind and solar produce more electricity than nuclear for the first time in the US and much safer

Glad to clear that up for you.
