What else can I help you with?
What process do nuclear power plants use produce energy?
All current nuclear power plants use nuclear fission to produce energy. For more information on fission and power plants, see the related links.
Which country uses nuclear power plants for almost all of their power?
France
Are there any nuclear power plants in Colorado?
No. See the NRC website 'www.nrc.gov' for a map of all US nuclear plants
Name of all the power plants in India?
For nuclear plants, see the link below
What element is currently used in all nuclear power plants?
uranium
Three states that use nuclear power for electricity?
See www.nrc.gov for a list of all US states with nuclear power plants
How many less tons of greenhouse gases are emitted from nuclear power plants?
Nuclear power plants emit significantly fewer greenhouse gases compared to fossil fuel power plants. On average, nuclear plants emit around 2-3 million tons less CO2 per year for each gigawatt of power produced compared to coal-fired power plants. This reduction helps to mitigate the impacts of climate change.
Why do people have to test nukes at nuclear power plants?
Nuclear weapons are NOT tested at nuclear power plants!!!! They are tested at remote locations far from population centers, and responsible countries do all their testing underground to eliminate the fallout hazard.
Do all nuclear power plants use cooling towers?
Yes, all but the one in my basement
Give 10 power plants that produce electricity?
See www.nrc.gov for a list of all the nuclear plants in the US
What is the source of energy in nuclear power plants?
The source of energy in almost all nuclear power plants is fission or the splitting of the atom. There are a few experimental fusion power plants, (or the joining of the atoms), but, there are few of them, since the energy needed to produce fusion is extremly high, and only last a few seconds. Around 99.99% of nuclear power plants are fission power plants.
How many power plants can be replaced by a nuclear power plant?
It varies depending on the capacity of each power plant, but generally speaking, one nuclear power plant can replace multiple coal-fired power plants due to the higher energy output of nuclear energy.
