There is no way of storing nuclear energy once it is produced

Nuclear energy is not directly stored in the traditional sense. Instead, it is converted into electricity and then stored in the electrical grid for distribution to consumers. In some cases, excess electricity generated by nuclear power plants can be stored using other energy storage systems like batteries or pumped hydro storage.

How is energy stored in a cracker?
energy is stored in a cracker by the chemical bonds that have been created in the making of the cracker. when the cracker is digested these bonds are broken and energy is released.
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?
The answer is Nuclear Fusion
What is the name of energy that is being used?
electricity is the energy which is been used i think don't take this information if you do not believe me There are many forms of energy, examples include: chemical, gravitational, elastic, thermal, electromagnetic, electric, nuclear. These forms of energy can be categorized into two main classes: Potential Energy and Kinetic Energy.Potential Energy is the energy stored in the system. Kinetic Energy is the energy being used.
What is an example of a sentence using the words potential energy?
Potential energy is the energy stored inside large water reservoirs. It means the energy which has not been yet utilized.
Why is nuclear energy efficient?
The energy we receive from the sun is nuclear in origin, and that is what caused the vegetation to grow that turned into fossil fuels. The sun's heat drives the weather and that produces wind for wind turbines and rain for hydro power and ocean waves for wave power. The uranium we use probably arose from supernovas that preceded the sun's formation, but we can now use the nuclear energy it contains. Biomass is obvously a product of the sun's heating effects. I can't think of anything else.
What happens to nuclear energy before it is used?
Nuclear energy is released as heat in the fuel of a nuclear reactor, but only when the reactor has been brought to criticality and the chain reaction started. At that point the heat must be used, it can't be stored and used later. Before criticality is established, the reactor is shutdown and producing no nuclear heat from fission, so you could regard it as having potential nuclear energy in that state
When wood burns heat energy is released where had this heat energy been stored?
The heat energy is not stored, its created by a chemical reaction.
Is nuclear energy the clenest form of energy?
Not quite. The problem of getting rid of the nuclear waste has not been satisfactorily solved.
Where and when has nuclear energy been used?
Nuclear weapon, nuclear (atomic) power stations. Also the Sun works on nuclear reactions.

Where has the us lost a nuclear bomb?
Offshore Palomares Spain was one, it was recovered later. There have been many "broken arrows" incidents.
What is bad about nuclear energy?
Mainly that no good solution has been found to dispose of the nuclear wastes.
Where has most of the solar energy been stored?
plants & vegetation.
Should the UK go nuclear?
The UK has been nuclear for a very long time. It has lots of nuclear energy stations and lots of nuclear weapons.
Where has Nuclear Energy been used with great success?
In France for example.
What energy source has been most affected by safety concerns?
natural gas apex
