It takes approximately 5 to 10 years to bring a nuclear plant online. Clean energy is growing at an average of 40GW a year for the next 10 years. https://www.eia.gov/todayinenergy/detail.php?id=65964

By the time a nuclear plant comes online, Renewables have incrementally added 400 gigawatts. Granted, nukes generate 4 to 8 times more energy, but solar can significantly improve crop yields and soil health. They also make it easy to raise sheep and cattle. It's a good thing I like lamb (yum).
