If Nuclear Energy is cheap, why aren't we seeing widespread use of it as compared to fossil fuel?

Like FP91G said its very expensive to dispose the waste, Another reason is Nuclear Accident and

"Facing similar challenges to its European counterparts — including technological problems, cost escalations, and huge upfront investments — nuclear power has become a less attractive option than cheaper solar and wind power" - https://www.brinknews.com/nuclear-power-is-declining-in-the-west-and-growing-in-developing-countries/

The capacity and location of the future nuclear plant have not yet been communicated - https://www.enerdata.net/publications/daily-energy-news/indonesia-plans-build-nuclear-power-plant-2039.html
