Nuclear energy is much cheaper because Uranium price is stable and much more lower than the prices of oil and coal. Also, Uranium is aplenty and estimated to last more than a century which is sufficient enough for about 100 year.
Another benefit or advantage is nuclear energy is also more environmentally friendly than burning the fossil fuel and gases which emits greenhouse gases. Coal and oil have sulphur impurities and release sulphur oxide, which can cause of acid rain.
In term of safety, nuclear power plant is becoming safer and more efficient and proper waste disposal system has also been structured. Furthermore, the amount of nuclear waste produced from making enough electric energy to power an all electric household for about 30 years can be fitted in a cigarette pack( can you see how small is the amount of waste produced..).
As a conclusion, I can say that the nuclear energy give more advantage in social concern over pollution, cost of living, issue of global warming, energy security and energy cost.
So what are we waiting for?, lets agreed to develop the nuclear power plant for our own benefits.

The Nuclear Energy is environmentally friendly and required very small amount of raw material required to generate huge amount of nuclear energy. To put it into perspective, about 28gm of Uranium releases as much amount of energy as is generated by 100 metric tonnes of coal.
