Only when it’s dark, overcast, winter or really cold. Otherwise it’s mainly due to the extreme overcapacity required to handle distributed unreliable energy sources as well as an increasing fleet of electric cars, stressing every last kilometer of the grid. And windmills, a reliance on methane gas as gap-filling and a few other issues. (Sorry, I know snarking is frowned upon on HN - but we choose this collective delusion over the hellish, yet stable, Cherenkov light of nuclear)

How will you make the electricity cheaper when nuclear power requires above 20 cents/kWh excluding transmission costs and everything else to get built in 2025?

You also do know that said nuclear plants won't deliver a new kWh to the grid until the 2040s?

What problem are you even solving?

Yes, large scale infrastructure projects takes time. 15 years is not really that long.

I would rather we started rebuilding our energy infrastructure today than later…
