It is one of the answers. Nuclear alone cannot meet the continually rising electricity demands of the world. In addition, there is a finite resource of uranium on the planet which means that at some point in the future we will need a true renewable alternative. In the short term our reliance on fossil fuels will need to be reduced by all types of alternative including hydro, wave and tide, solar, bio, wind and nuclear. Ultimately the best hope will be to be able to produce a sustainable fusion reaction as powers the sun. As this only requires the elements in water we would have effectively infinite supplies of power. So far we are not even close although lots of peopleare working on it.

How can you produce energy in future by nuclear power plant if there is no source?

The source of nuclear power is the nucleus of an atom; any atom. As long as there is mass in the universe there will be a source of nuclear power. Even if in the future we run out of the radioactive material we currently use to fuel nuclear power plants, it would be foolish to assume that we will never again be able to harness nuclear energy in another way.

How did they create nuclear power in Back to the Future part 2?

In none of the back to the future movies have they ever created nuclear power. In the first one they used lighting to generate 1.21 gw of energy, and then the professer fixed it in the beggining of the second movie so you don't need nuclear power to go back.

Is there a possibility for personal, home nuclear power generation in the near future?

After searching for an answer to this question I can only find information on nuclear power generation in power station. I would assume that this complete lack of any information in relation to home nuclear power generation means it will not be a possibility in the near future.


Should the UK develop nuclear power in the future?

We should not have nuclear power in the future because so many things can happen; for example people can get skin cancer and can cause high level radioactive waste/and it is very expensive and also nuclear power can cause small accidents. the nuclear power looks like a dick with wee coming out (that is a very true fact) i am very picc or i dont want skin cancer


How is nuclear generation similar to nuclear fusion?

There is very little similarity between present day power plants which use nuclear fission, and any possible nuclear fusion plant of the future


Does nuclear power provides cheap and clean energy?

Only if you don't consider the cost to the future.
