Nuclear energy is never likely to be used to power road vehicles or aircraft, though it is used for ships, so its main use will always be for producing electricity in large central power stations. Similarly it is never likely to be used for individual home heating, the task of licensing millions of small reactors would be impossible.

Can nuclear energy be used everywhere?

Yes. There are virtually no physical limitations to where nuclear power can be used. Nuclear reactors have already been used on land, air and sea... and submerged and in space. Not only we humans use nuclear energy, but it is the primary source of energy in natural processess in the world too. Life on earth depends on the sun's energy, which in part is produced by nuclear fusion in the heart of the star.


Is fusion nuclear energy or chemical energy?

Nuclear fusion produces nuclear energy


Is nuclear energy a chemical energy?

The energy released is nuclear energy.


Is fission nuclear energy chemical energy or mechanical energy?

Nuclear fission is a type of nuclear reaction that converts nuclear energy into thermal energy (heat), which can then be used to generate mechanical energy (such as electricity). So, fission nuclear energy originates as nuclear energy and can be converted into mechanical energy.


What energy is the energy that is stored in an atoms nucleus?
