Nuclear power plants such as PWR and BWR have a thermal efficiency around 33 percent. The best fossil fired plants are around 40 percent efficient.
No, no machine is 100% efficient.
The reason nuclear energy is most efficient today is, because with little it can create a hundred times more. For instance, Japan's entire economy is constructed on nuclear energy. Even if they have suffered, because of some inconveniences, before that they use to be the leading economical giant. In general nuclear energy is the most efficient resource on the planet, right now.
Operating at 98% Efficiency, U.S. Nuclear Plants Play Vital Role in Beating Sweltering Heat Wave
Nuclear power is the cheapest, safest, and most efficient way to generate power. there are breeder reactors that generate free power by creating fissile material from the normal nuclear waste. so, it does not generate waste
Nuclear Energy is able to produce a constant ammount of energy at all times where as solar energy does not.
Uranium is very efficient as nuclear fuel or nuclear weapon. Uranium is an alternative to fossil fuels.
No, no machine is 100% efficient.
It isn't, yet.
efficient coolant that does not act as a neutron moderator.
Nuclear energy is a very clean source of electricity. There are no pollutants put into the air, and it is very efficient.
yes
Nuclear power is currently the safest, most efficient way of producing power. Fossil fuels such as coal and oil damage the environment whilst solar power and wind power hasn't soared yet. A replacement for nuclear power may be hydrogen fuel cells from water but this would not be as efficient as nuclear power.

Nuclear reactors supply approx 20 percent of electricity in the US
Steam generators are quite efficient because it does rely on traditional energy source such as oil or coal. However, because it uses nuclear power, there is always a threat of a nuclear meltdown unless absolute precautions are taken.
