The uranium production of Romania is now modest: probably not more than 200 t/year (as metal). The production of nuclear fuel for the Cernavoda Nuclear Power Plant is also approx. 200 t/year as sintered uranium dioxide.
Mortality in France: approx. 9/1000. Mortality in Romania: approx. 12/1000.
Approximately 6% of the world's energy comes from nuclear power, with about 14% of the world's electricity coming from nuclear power. The US, France, and Japan, combined, account for about 50% of the world's use of nuclear power for the generation of electricity. For more information, please see the Related Link below.
Number of nuclear weapons by country: Country # of nuclear weapons USA 10'300 Russia 16'000 China 410 France 350
I would say the USA as it has more operating power reactors than any other country, but France is also well up there with a greater proportion of electrical power being nuclear, it is though a much smaller country and industrial economy
Several countries utilize nuclear power more than the US, including France, which relies heavily on nuclear energy for electricity generation. Countries such as China and Russia also have significant nuclear power programs. However, there are also countries that utilize nuclear power less than the US, such as Germany and Japan, which have reduced their reliance on nuclear energy in recent years.
There are about 5 in the state of Florida alone - France is powered 100% by Nuclear power. It is more a question of what country/state you want that information for. http://www.nucleartourist.com/basics/location.htm from http://www.nucleartourist.com/
The following countries get more than half their electricity from nuclear power: France - 76.2% Slovakia - 56.4% Belgium - 53.8% The Ukraine comes close to half, with 47.4%.
Both. In 2007, France's power generation was 78% nuclear. At the same time, the US generation was only 19% nuclear. Japan's was 28% nuclear. Brazil's was only 3%. These numbers are from the Int'l Atomic Energy Assoc.
i think nuclear power is awesome
That depends on the community. Most of France, for example, welcomes nuclear energy and that country gets about 80% of their electricity from nuclear. New York city, on the other hand, fears and despises the Indian Point nuclear power station even though they use the power and look for more.
France produces about 80% of its electricity by nuclear plants, but this is an exception in Europe, most countries with nuclear plants have about 20%, as in the USA. Not sure about Japan, but nuclear appeals there I think because they have little fossil fuels in the country. See www.world-nuclear.org for a more detailed survey.
