Direct link to Figure 14, which tells how many TWh electricity in a year you get from 1 km^2 of area, with different power sources:

Might be worth pointing out that not only is the nuclear number the highest, it is such even considering the very conservative assumption of counting the entire safety area (which might as well be covered with solar by the way).
Without counting the safety area, the 6.7TWh/km2 of the graph is tripled to 20.3TWh/km2.

Also, the UNECE LCA [10] is a gold mine.
