I’d add that part of the answer is: as various other relevant technologies become cheaper, both the solar farm and nuclear plant operators (and/or their customers) are going to invest in some combination of batteries and electrolyzers (probably SOECs for nuclear to use some of the excess heat) and carbon capture equipment and other things in order to make other useful products (methanol, ammonia, fuels, other chemicals, steel, aluminum, etc.) using the excess capacity.
I agree with this reasoning.
