Everyone needs nuclear power. All things considered, it remains the best and safest source of energy that we have available for the present and the reasonable future. There are a lot of alternative energy solutions out there, but they will not be sufficiently advanced in the near future to support our energy needs. Yes, there are risks, but they need to be put into rational perspective, including understanding the fact that the global risks of fossil fuel power are actually greater than nuclear.
This is a matter of opinion. Currently I do not live in the UK. However, There are potentials and dangers of Nuclear Power. If there is a scarcity of electricity and the population trends are rising you may need to add some more power to your local grids.
no because they should find different ways to suply power no because they should find different ways to suply power
It will do soon, as old stations are retired
Many nuclear power stations in different countries-mainly the US, UK, France, Canada, Russia, and others.
The majority of he UK's electricity is generated by coal or gas-fired power stations. We also use nuclear power, wind and wave generators.
We are all used to "power on demand" which means when we do something that includes electricity, we expect something to happen. We can use "unreliable sources" such as wind turbines etc but just in case that plan doesn't come into place, we should have something else that will generate our electricity (a nuclear power station.) Governments need to do this!Nuclear power is currently the only meaningful technology that will reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Unlike, for example, solar power where the energy investment equation can be negative when looking at the environmental impact. Until people are ready to give up dishwashers, washing machines and all the other labor saving devices then nuclear power is essential.There are many arguements for and against nuclear power. The UK relies on nuclear power for 20% of its electricity. It dominates in some countries (78% in France). Although there are many concerns about safely displosing of it. Renewable energy is an alternative to nuclear power.AIn my opinion yesAbut in what way would the UK need more power stations i no that 20% of the UK`s electricity is nuclear produced but it can cause very harmful affects on som people and in sellafeild a small village near the power stations children were 78% more likely to get leaukemia.
The UK has been nuclear for a very long time. It has lots of nuclear energy stations and lots of nuclear weapons.
Yes, the argument is over what type to build
You are misinformed. All the AGR stations are operational, the magnox ones are mostly shutdown because they have reached the end of life as expected.
Yes, because nuclear power stations induce energy from a nucleus. That nucleus being from the most common element called Uranium. Unlike power plants that burn coal which is a fossil fuel which leads to globabl warming.... Nuclear power stations dont BURN anything. they just establish nucleuses in a 'chain reaction'. where more and more nucleuses mutate and doubles and doubles whilst giving out TONS of energy. nuclear is a clean process. But it is extremely expensive to build and it would take a long time to make the nuclear reactor and apparatus... they need to be patient. :)
West London gets its electricity supply from various power stations located across the UK, connected through the National Grid. Some of the power stations that contribute to the electricity supply in this area include gas-fired power stations, nuclear power plants, and renewable energy sources such as wind and solar farms.
no we need slaves!! >=D muh hahahahaha >=D
