The total cost per kWh of nuclear electricity is more expensive than common renewable sources of electricity.

Subsidize nuclear as much as renewables and the price equalizes.

The total amount of carbon dioxide equivalent emissions for nuclear is greater than the carbon dioxide equivalent emissions of common renewable sources of electricity.

This is incorrect, objectively.
