You are right, th link shows that nuclear is the safest right after solar, if you count dead/Terawatt-hour. 0.03 for nuclear and 0.02 for solar.

Solar is still very small (and intermittent) when it comes to production, for instance, less than 2% for US (source: https://flowcharts.llnl.gov/sites/flowcharts/files/2023-10/U...). This single new UK nuclear power plant alone would account for 7% of UK production according to the article.
