I have a pretty big base with a Filter, Moonpool and the like. It sucks down quite a bit of power, especially during the night when my solar array is non-functional, and I find refueling the Bioreactor tedious. The Nuclear Reactor supplants all other sources of power, and you can directly set how much it's outputting by putting in different amounts of fuel.

It also might be vital for deep-water Seabases, for which Solar Panels won't work, especially in the Dunes, where there are no plants.

EDIT: now, with the addition of power cell and battery charging stations, my base eats power like crazy when I've got two power cells and four batteries charging at once, and the Nuclear Reactor really comes in handy.
