I'm in the process of installing a 4kw grid of solar panels on my own roof for a cost (after subsidies/rebates) of $17k, so $4.25 / watt. For greener energy, I think the premium is worth it.

$4.25/Watt-peak, not Watt. It's not the same.

Also, the Nuke power plant gives 1.2gW constant. Day and night. Sunny or rainy.

Not quite a good comparison.

We actively change our environment to our benefit. We light the night, warm our houses, deforest our countries, mine our resources...

The argument of "it's natural" is stupid. If it's natural, modify nature. We are constantly doing it.
Why? Because this change does NOT benefit us.
So, nature doesn't want to change (or we don't know how to coerce her)?
Well, at least don't help the change!
