My prediction:
Nuclear energy will make a big comeback, taking advantage of
technological improvements.
In the USA, only a couple of locations in the middle of nowhere (in
case of an accident) with many Super Reactors clustered together would
be necessary, as advances in nanotechnology presage the development of
a viable superconductor which should radiate out to all end users,
delivering electricity efficently.
With Cheap Power, electric cars will be the norm.
It could, and should, happen.

I too think it will make a comeback of sorts, though with demand ever
increasing, I doubt electricity will ever be cheaper than it is now.
All it would take though is one more Chernobyl and nuke would be dead
for good.
