NUCLEAR ENERGY ENVIRONMENTFRIENDLY

The nuclear energy is environment friendly as it is safe and it could be explain via example.

1: The Exelon Corporation runs 17 nuclear power plants all over the country and shows how these plants help reduce climate change.

2: The Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) is a non-profit group, which works to reduce climate change through methods of nuclear energy production.

These are one of those groups working to create new technologies that will make nuclear power a safer and more environmental friendly source of energy because they believe it is a necessary source for controlling climate changes.

Perhaps Nuclear energy has the lowest impact on the environment including flora, fauna, air, land, and water. It produces no harmful greenhouse gases, isolates its waste from the environment, and requires less area to produce the same amount of electricity as compare to other sources.

NUCLEAR ENERGY COST EFFECTIVENESS

The nuclear energy is not at all cost effective because the biggest financial crunch with nuclear power is the time period it takes to build the reactor. Large and heavy construction together with the various public notices and enquiries and legal procedure makes it an expensive process. Moreover Construction alone will take 5-6 years. During this time interest must be paid to the creditor without any return since no electricity will be produced till construction work is complete.

NUCLER ENERGY USEFUL TO UK’S SOCIETY AND PUBLIC

Nuclear energy is useful UK’s society and public due to certain reasons which are discussed below:

1: POWERING OUR ECONOMY: Through nuclear energy the United Kingdom generates a fifth of the country’s electricity (19.26% in 2004). The Nuclear Installations Inspectorate oversees all nuclear power installations and, as of 2006, the United Kingdom operates 24 nuclear reactors. The country also use
