Just to go further on this, I believe wind and solar are good, but the wind doesn't always blow and the sun doesn't always shine.
I am willing to bet that some larger industries would love not to be reliant on the grid, because on hot days everyone switches on their air cons and the problem looks like only getting worse with the electrification of transport etc, it gets to the point now where industry loses it's power some times when demand is high, that is a problem I see getting worse not better.
Industry would kill for a power supply that is theirs alone and one where it gets electricity but it also will get added advantages like hydrogen production, desalination if required? and also process heat to help with their own needs, SMR's are coming because they have that many advantages for Industry and also military applications and in that there will be little competition from other other sources of producing energy.
