Isn't this intuitively true?

Building a nuclear power plant incurs in a massive set up stage with a lot of unknowns unknowns and requiring impressive material engineering and QC.

Solar is much more "incremental", you can almost start producing electricity and recouping costs immediately.

But a nuclear reactor is an extremely dense power generator compared to a solar panel plant by orders of magnitude. I'm not really sure why are they compared this way.
