Nuclear is the way to go, till the next best option at least.
So far wind farm and solar panel don't have that great a power density.
They will works for some location but not for everybody. Heavy industries, big metropole, etc. will have a hard time being supplied with such sources.
Nuclear plant does generate pollution. Not that much the radioactive waste, as lot of progress as been made in containment, as thermal pollution. In France they have to shut down some plants during very hot summer as the plants are warning the rivers past acceptable temperature for the wildlife. Still it's the best option today in term of pollution.
