How come New Zealand doesnt have nuclear power stations?

New Zealand was one of the only countries to proclaim themselves "nuclear-free" in 1987, and although it is not illegal to build or operate a nuclear power station in New Zealand (despite popular belief), there is strong public and government opposition to nuclear. New Zealand's electricity system is small and isolated with plenty of renewable resources to generate electricity from, meaning there is no major need to build baseload fossil fuel power plants, let alone nuclear plants. In addition, most modern nuclear reactor units are around 1000 MW in size, which is around 33% of the country's off-peak demand (14-16% at peak) - if the plant were to trip off the grid suddenly off-peak, it would cause the electricity frequency to drop too fast for backup generation and automatic load shedding to operate, resulting in cascading failure and blackout of half the country.

What problems do nuclear weapons put on a country?

It really depends on what country owns the nuclear weapons, if your country owns them, then the only thing you have to worry about is that it will go off by accident (Completely unlikely). But if it is an enemy country that owns them you have to watch out for nuclear attacks.
