nuclear power plant
It is estimated a new nuclear plant built today in the US would cost $10-12 billion for a 1500-1600 MW plant. Then once you have the plant built, one load of fuel bundles would cost approx. $150 to $200 million.
define green....... anything like a solar panel or a windmill...yes. But like a power plant no it costs way to much to burn or incinerate anything to make energy...unless you consider a nuclear power plant green.
yes a coal is nature nuclear uses lots of power Process for production of power from coal is very inefficient , More over it produces lot of carbon dioxide in to atmosphere (harmful green house gas). While Process for production of power from Nuclear plant is very good when compared with coal power. But initial and maintenance cost is very high. Unit cost for coal power is more economical than nuclear power. So economically coal power station is better. But on the basis of efficiency Nuclear power stations are good. When the deaths caused by the two types of mining are considered, coal fired systems have a much higher overall death rate. But the coal mining industry is improving this.
A pithead is a power plant that is located in coal min e itself and thus reduces operating cost as transportation cost of carrying coal to power plant is reduced.
nuclear power plant
Levelized cost of kwh from a nuclear power plant is cheaper than from any fossil fueled power plants.
6-7 billion
It takes about 8-10 mn $ to setup a nuclear power plant. but the resources used in it are inexpensive common in the earth's crust
one NRs 6000000000000000 billion dollars
You will have to ask an electricity company that operates nuclear plants
I think only a company that owns a plant being de-commissioned could answer this.

There are many factors involved, such as age, load, type of power, capacity, and environment. For instance, the average cost of just fuel in a typical nuclear power plant is around $40 million (US) for 18 months. The maintenance of a power plant includes parts, labour and ovehead for breakdown repairs, preventive maintenance and capital renewals, it does not include the fuel used to produce the power output of the plant. Maintenance costs for a thermal power plant is about 2 to 3% of replacement cost. So for a 2 billion dollar plant maintenance would be expected to be about 50 million dollars annually.
It'l be in the range of £100-£200 million a month
Yes, the benefits of nuclear power over weigh the cost of producing it.
I think you will have to ask a company that operates a nuclear station to get anywhere with this. When you say 'maintain' , do you mean the cost of running it including the fuel costs, or just the cost of maintenance? There is some difference. Either way, I doubt if there is anyone in WA who could provide this figure, and I know commercial companies are sensitive to anyone trying to guess a figure. I should find your nearest plant and ask directly, they might just respond.
