I'm not sure that it's cheap if you look at the costs of handling the waste over the next 1000 years, but we do need some kind of controllable power until energy storage technology gets better. In my country 40% of the power comes from renewables...except when the wind stops when it's close to 0%. If you want to keep the lights on, then you need to burn stuff (oil, coal, gas, biomass) or use nuclear.
