New Zealand is not against nuclei themselves, for we have several here.
We do not consider the world is improved by nuclear weapons.
Several 'nuclear powers' have been attacked, Israel, Russia, India, USA, UK but there has been no evidence of the 'nuclear deterrence'.
What else can I help you with?
Why does New Zealand make more use of hydroelectric power than the UK?
It makes very good sense for New Zealand to make much more use of hydroelectric power than the UK because New Zealand has more lakes which are situated high above sea level than the UK.
Can you use Australian power plugs in New Zealand's outlets?
Yes both have the three flat pins, in the shape of an arrow.
Why do Japan and New Zealand have nuclear plants and not hydro plants?
New Zealand has an abundance of large rivers and lakes that offer potential for hydroelectric development. And these, along with some geothermal power generation, mean that about 31% of energy in NZ is generated from renewable resources. In recent years, wind power is increasing its contribution to electrical generation. There is a coal-fired power station, and most other energy is consumed by transport.New Zealand has rather set its face against nuclear power of any kind (including visiting ships), because of the hazards of nuclear activity. [In similar vein, New Zealand has expressed opposition to land mines and cluster weapons in warfare.]Oddly enough, New Zealand has large reserves of thorium sands, which may be able to be used in nuclear power plants that do not have the undesirable byproducts associated with the uranium fuel cycle.The reason why most of the world's nuclear power stations use uranium as a fuel, is that it produces plutonium as a byproduct - much valued for nuclear weapons. The electricity is almost a byproduct - it is the plutonium that the military desire at almost any cost.India is the only country currently with an interest in developing thorium reactors,Japan by contrast generates only about 3% of its energy from hydro. The balance is supplied from coal, Nuclear, and petroleum. [Presumably much of this coal energy is used in the production of steel.]Japan's earliest nuclear reactors were constructed in the 70s era, and in all fairness, knowledge of tectonic plates and underwater faults were in their infancy in those days. It would be fair to say that Japan would not today site large plants on the eastern shore, close to the subduction fault lines and the tsunami dangers that result. But forty years ago, such detail was wanting.Japan is a heavily populated country, and without nuclear generated electricity, its fossil fuel bills would be grotesque.
How much is 200000 American dollars worth in new zealand pounds?
As of today (01APR2011), $200,000 USD is worth about 260,416 New Zealand Dollars. New Zealand does not use pounds.
What type of currency does New Zealand have?
New Zealand uses the New Zealand Dollar (NZD), which is not the same as the Australian dollar.
What state uses the least nuclear energy?
Australia, New Zealand, and Italy use zero nuclear power
Why does New Zealand make more use of hydroelectric power than the UK?
It makes very good sense for New Zealand to make much more use of hydroelectric power than the UK because New Zealand has more lakes which are situated high above sea level than the UK.
What sort of power does new zealand use?
NZ uses 230 V ac, 50 Hz.
What money does New Zealand use?
New Zealand Dollar (NZD)The New Zealand dollar (abbreviation NZD)
What decade did the commercial use of nuclear power begin?
The commercial use of nuclear power began in the 1950's
Can you use Australian power plugs in New Zealand's outlets?
Yes both have the three flat pins, in the shape of an arrow.
Are you allowed suppressors in New Zealand?
No, you are not allowed to use suppressors in New Zealand
Advancements in nuclear science have led to new technology which have been beneficial to society Many of the advances are used in medicine what is not a medical use of nuclear energy?
One non-medical use of nuclear energy is power generation in nuclear power plants to produce electricity for homes and industries. Another example is the use of nuclear energy in research to study fundamental particles and phenomena in physics.
What energy do nuclear power plants create?
They use nuclear energy to produce power for the grid.
In what decade did the use of nuclear power begin?
It could be argued that the use of nuclear power began in the 1950's when a nuclear reactor in the Idaho desert supplied electric power to a local community.
Who can use nuclear power?
Technically, anyone who lives near a nuclear power plant and, i suppose, gets permission, can use nuclear energy as a cheaper alternative to electricity
Why dont people use nuclear power plants anymore?
A lot of people use nuclear power daily throughout the world.
