Nuclear fuel (uranium) is not renewable. The plant itself has a life based on deterioration of important components, especially the main reactor pressure vessel. This is subject to intense neutron bombardment during operation, and at present can only be licensed (in the US) for up to 60 years. At the end of life it would have to be scrapped, so it is not renewable.
