People count material, fuel and ecological with nuclear as well, so why not count it with hydro, wind and solar? Concrete is concrete.
Because all technology will require that. If we want energy, we have to build stuff. But there's no fuel to buy, generally much less ecological impact due to limited waste products since no fuel is being "burned". And the building cost is one time and generally subsidized, and maintenance is considerably lower, not to mention labor since you don't need nuclear specialists to run the day to day.
